Am 25 years old. I was prescribed isotroin along with doxytec for mild acne, after a while was diagnosed with keratoconus. Very mild acne reappeared this time with a lot of oiliness. Dermatologist said I cannot go on isotroin when I have keratoconus & has only prescribed doxytec. Can I not take isotroin at least for 20 days till the oiliness has disappeared?

No need for isotroin and I will suggest you to apply aloevera gel twice a day for six months over the lesion and follow up on completion

No. Depending on the grade. Acne or pimples. Due to hormonal changes. Oily skin causes it. Common in adolescent age. May occur in adults also. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne. So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
