There are so many topical treatments available to treat acne. Ready to learn how to make sense of them all?

Keep using your treatments this week!

~ Angela


Over-the-Counter Treatment Options
OTC can be effective in the case of mild acne or blackheads. But the results you get are dependent on choosing the right products and using them the right way.

Topical Retinoids
If OTC products just aren't cutting it, don't get too disappointed. Prescription medications might be just what you need. Topical retinoids are some of the most common (and effective) acne medications available.

Topical Antibiotics
Topical antibiotics are another good choice, especially for inflamed breakouts. They can be found alone or mixed with other medications for extra-effective treatment.

What Is The Best Treatment?
Options are great, but wouldn't it be better if your dermatologist or skin care pro (or me, for that matter) could just tell you which treatment is the best? Unfortunately, the answer isn't that easy.
