Hello
Thanks for asking a question at HCM
It is pleasure to help you at this moment
Acne can be treated by benzoic acid, salicylic acid, retinoids, antiadrogens etc. Each works better for different persons.
You can try in combination method, which works for you. Don't mix, but try one in the morning and one in the night after consulting your doc.
If you have not taken a oral antibiotic course, please take once.
Hope this helps!
Best Regards
Dr Chaithanya
