Hi, thanks for posting your query Acne starts during puberty due to hormone production and can continue till 30 years or even later. there is no permanent cure for it . we can treat lesions and prevent its recurrance with medications. Acne can be treated with local creams or oral may be needed depending on its severity Also salisylic peels are being increasingly used for active lesions In your case; zyclin ( clindamamycin ) alone may some times lead to resistance so add benzoyl peroxide 5% gel with it Redness may occur due to Retino -A so either use it for still lesser period or use adapalene cream at night. Use a salisylic facewash twice a day Oral antibiotic for few weeks Sali peel once in 15 days Black head and white head extraction regularly Hope this helps you
