Skin care in patients with acne problems both increases adherence to treatment and supports our treatment.
In order to remove sweat, oil, dirt and microorganisms, it should be cleaned twice a day with a cleanser close to the pH of the skin, without drying and irritating the skin.
The towel used to dry the face should be changed frequently.
Water-based and oil-free moisturizers should be used twice a day to reduce burning and dryness that may develop with treatment.
Serums, lotions and moisturizers containing active ingredients such as azeleic acid, zinc, niacinamide, alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids, which suppress inflammation, reduce the oily appearance and reduce blackhead formation, can be added to skin care by making a treatment plan with your dermatologist.
Sunscreens should also be added to the skin care routine in order to both reduce scars and prevent the side effects of the treatments used.
