A quick fix for acne

Sorry, the reality here is that there is no quick fix for acne. Although when properly treated by a dermatologist, maximizing medical treatment that might include oral antibioitcs , topical retinoids combined with topical antibiotics, the scientific literature suggests improvement begins as early as 4-6 weeks. However, I tell my patients at least 3 months before treatment results are noticeable. And, no one cures or fixes acne. We can treat it, control it and improve it but we cannot cure... more
