To clear acne you must use a treatment which targets the causes; androgens, oil and bacteria.
Oral antibiotics such as Oxytetracycline are helpful, as are topical antibiotics like Clindamycin.
Topical lotions such as Retin-A or Duac gel will dry the skin and prevent the abnormal processes of the skin involved in acne.
Female acne patients can take an anti-androgen or combined oral contraceptive pill to block the effects of androgens.
Speak to your doctor about these options.
Eloise.
