Acne

[Reina0528]

I struggle with the acne you see on the left. I'm not sure what it is. I have used a bunch of products and nothing helps. I also have some on my cheek and can't get rid of it. HELP!!!! I'm not looking for retinol because I am too young (13). Please help me i've also tried the tower 28 but it does not work that well for me. TYY QUEENSSS

It takes 60 days for it to take affect. I struggled with acne and hyperpigmentation in high school for a while. look for everyday cleansers, serums, etc. with glyolic acid and/or niacinamide. I love a lot of kbeauty brands lately, also look for salicylic acid benzoyl peroxide and azealic acid but you dont want to use them everyday as it can dry out skin. I use them every other day and then use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer everyday, you should also try adapalene gel. youre type of acne could also benefit from a chemical peel or microdermabrasion, you can go to a med spa. For me some brands for acne i love are dermalogica, la roche posay, skin 1004, suhlwasoo, mediheal, paula's choice, and murad. i know a lot of coworkers also like panoxyl.

@Reina0528 @Have you seen a dermatologist?

[Reina0528]

Yes, but every product I use from them does not work.
