i healed my acne in 2 weeks
This is just to help out anyone who gets hormonal acne and closed comedones. I am not a dermat (yet) but this is what has worked for me. I would suggest you doing a patch test and considering this advice according to your skin tho. U can clearly the see the date these photos were taken. (Expand the photos to see).
My skin type - dry, acne prone, oily at the T zone
Routine for active acne
AM
- Cerave hydrating cleanser (1x usually, 2x if i had sweat a lot)
- Bioderma atoderm moisturiser thin layer
- Benzoyl peroxide 2.5% on the active acne
- Sunscreen
PM
- Cerave hydrating cleanser (1x usually, 2x if i had sweat a lot)
- Bioderma atoderm moisturiser thin layer
After the acne has become less inflamed, stop using benzoyl peroxide, and use 2% salicylic acid serum every night.
I do have some acne marks left but im gonna treat them after i deal with the rest of the comedones. I am open to discourse. Again this was what suit me, may not suit everyone but just a suggestion to try out if ur in the same boat.
