Acne treatment
Hi doctor, I get some acne time to time. My cheek and nose area, primarily. The T zone as they call it. There have been some scars when I popped some acne, and my nose is slightly more oily compared to the rest of my face. Blackheads on nose are pretty much always there.
Is there anything other than using a facewash I should do to reduce acne and acne marks? How often should I be washing my face in a day? Can I use ointments like Acnesol-A nano gel?
