After cleansing, use an astringent, such as alcohol, to remove oil. Don't pick or squeeze your pimples. This means that they don't cause acne or make it worse. Shampoo hair at least twice a week. Don't let hair hang over the face even at night.
Hair spreads oil and bacteria.
Use dandruff shampoo to treat or prevent dandruff. Avoid cream rinses. After vigorous exercise, wash the sweat and oil off as soon as possible. Avoid moisturizers unless prescribed by your family doctor or dermatologist. However, if your acne is not improving, your doctor may prescribe a stronger benzoyl peroxide, topical antibiotics, Accutane and products related to vitamin A, such as Retin-A. With any medicine it will take 4 to 6 weeks to notice improvement.
