No, you should use the Pore Cleansing MD Tool on clogged pores and blackheads only. We do not recommend using over acne pimples or cystic acne to avoid increased inflammation and potential for scarring. You should use over-the-counter acne medications such as Benzoyl Peroxide, Salicylic Acid and Sulfur to treat mild-to-moderate acne. We recommend theUnblemishRegimen for adult acne and visible signs ofagingorSpotlessRegimen for teen and young adult acne.
