I have had pimples on my face for approximately 1.5 years. What medicine or cream should I use to treat them?

Asked by Female, 20 · 20 days ago

Dealing with persistent pimples for 1.5 years can be frustrating, but it is highly treatable. For mild to moderate acne, you can start with topical creams containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help clear pores and reduce inflammation. Applying a retinoid like adapalene gel at night can also prevent new breakouts. Always use a gentle, soap-free cleanser and oil-free moisturizer. Since your symptoms have lasted a while, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can prescribe stronger treatments, such as topical clindamycin, if needed. Please be patient, as skin treatments typically take 6 to 8 weeks to show visible improvement.
