Acne is a common skin condition that affects many people, but there are several treatments available that can help manage it. Some options include:
Over-the-counter or prescription creams, gels, or lotions containing benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids can help unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and prevent new acne from forming.
Prescription oral medications, such as antibiotics, birth control pills, or isotretinoin, may be recommended for more severe or persistent cases of acne.
Certain types of light therapy, such as blue light or red light therapy, can help reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation.
A dermatologist or esthetician can perform a procedure to extract blackheads or whiteheads that are not responding to other treatments.
