I've closed comedones on forehead, nose & chin
Also I've open pores on both sides of cheeks.
Online videos shows this skin care routine for comedones :-
1. Salicylic cleanser - minimalist
2. Salicylic acid serum - derma co.
3. Niacinamide serum
4. Retinol - minimalist
5. Adaferin gel
6. Moisturiser (I use Cetaphil)
7. Sunscreen
8. Exfoliation (ordinary - twice a week)
Do I need to use so many products in routine?
How much time does it take to get a clear skin ?
Please guide me a proper skin care routine along with the products
My skin type is oily

Hi there
Internet is a place where everyone is suddenly a dermatologist
All of these products might do more harm to your skin than good when used together
We have to Tailor make skin routine based on skin type and skin condition
For a detailed skincare routine and to address the issues that you have, kindly take a consult for us to help you better
You can consult a dermatologist for proper medicated products instead of using soo many products on your skin at once.
It will take time for the results to be seen but it will become better .
Don’t apply everything on face i would suggest.
You can follow basic skin care routine with salicylic acid for oily skin but try to keep your skin moisturised with non comedogenic moisturizer and use a non comedogenic sunscreen which may be silicone based or gel based. Kindly consult for better management
No need to worry.specific treatment is available.it depends on severity of the disease . Complete medical history is required..
Pls do online consultation with Dermatologist for detailed prescription & guidance.
