Is Erytop Cream Effective For White Heads & Pimples?

Hello Doc,Previously I used to have a lot of white heads on my face. So, i visited a dermatologist & he suggested me MS Deriva Gel. I used it for almost 6months and now it is ok. But, I feel after using that gel my face has become sensitive. And since from last 2 months I am getting pimples on my face & those pimples are swelling up & then reducing slowly and leaving scars on my face. So what should I do ? Is it k if I ll use ERYTOP cream ?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain sensitive skin can be a side effect of using MS Deriva Gel that contains retinoid Adapelene..
As you have pimples on your face that are swelling up and resolving by leaving the scars you can very well start using Erytop gel that contains Clindamycin Phosphate and along with it start using Benzoyl peroxide gel..
You can also wash your face twice a day with salicylic acid containing facewash..
Do cool compresses over the face..
Avoid excess sun exposure and oily food..
Drink plenty of water..
Scrub your face once a week with a gentle scrub..
In case of no relief in one month consult a Dermatologist and get evaluated..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
