I have acne and acne scars on my face, what are the best treatment creams or topical medications I can use?

Asked by Female, 22 · 2 days ago

For active acne, topical retinoids (like adapalene or tretinoin) are excellent for unclogging pores and promoting skin renewal. Benzoyl peroxide helps eliminate acne-causing bacteria, while salicylic acid exfoliates deep within pores. To address acne scars and dark spots, azelaic acid and vitamin C are highly effective at reducing hyperpigmentation and evening out skin tone. Retinoids also help improve skin texture and mild scarring over time. Since these treatments can make your skin sensitive, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. Start slowly to avoid irritation, and consider consulting a dermatologist for a personalized routine.
