I have pus-filled acne (pimples) on my face that leave small holes and red marks after healing. My doctor prescribed Erytop A Gel, but it has not helped much. Could you please suggest treatment for the acne, scars, and red marks?
If Erytop A Gel has not improved your acne, you may need stronger treatment, such as oral antibiotics (like doxycycline) or retinoids (like isotretinoin). Red marks can improve with daily sunscreen and creams containing azelaic acid or niacinamide. Small holes or acne scars can be treated with procedures such as chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapy once your acne is under control. Do not squeeze pimples, as it may worsen scars and red marks.
