Acne - Treatment Overview

Acne treatment depends on whether you have a mild, moderate, or severe type of acne. Sometimes your doctor will combine treatments to get the best results and to avoid developing drug-resistant bacteria. Treatment could include lotions or gels you put on blemishes or sometimes entire areas of skin, such as the chest or back (topical medicines). You might also take medicines by mouth (oral medicines).

Mild acne

Treatment for mild acne(whiteheads, blackheads, or pimples) may include:
  • Gentle cleansing with warm water and a mild soap, such as Dove or Cetaphil.
  • Applying benzoyl peroxide(such as Brevoxyl or Triaz).
  • Applying salicylic acid (such as Propa pH or Stridex).
If these treatments do not work, you may want to see your doctor. Your doctor can give you a prescription for stronger lotions or creams. You may try an antibioticlotion. Or you may try a lotion with medicine that helps to unplug your pores.

As a result, your doctor may give you oral antibiotics sooner to start the healing process. This kind of acne may need a combination of several therapies. Treatment for moderate to severe acne may include:
