ACNE VULGARIS – Don’t Ignore It!
Acne is not just a teenage phase—and it’s definitely not something to treat at a beauty parlor or with home remedies. It’s a real skin condition that needs proper medical care.
Where can it appear?
Face
Chest
Back
Shoulders
Common Myths (Don’t believe them!):
✘ Acne is caused by dirt
✘ Toothpaste or lemon juice can cure it
✘ Only teens get acne
✘ Parlors can treat it safely
Treatment Matters:
For mild to moderate acne
Adapalene + Benzoyl Peroxide
Clindamycin + Benzoyl Peroxide
These reduce oil, bacteria, and inflammation. Severe acne may need oral medications.
Remember:
Don’t pop pimples
Avoid harsh scrubs
Always consult a doctor
