Acne can be due to hormonal imbalance, stress, lack of sleep, thyroid, eating oily, dairy products and chocolates and excessive oil secretion by sebaceous glands.isotretinoin can help but always consult a dermatologist for proper dose and duration of medications.consult me online for further treatment

Yes Isotretinoin can help here. But plz do not self medicate. Many factors have to be taken into consideration. It is not an otc drug. Plz consult a dermatologist for your condition.
