I am having the issue with pimples, please suggest me with the cure for the same. Some cream or medicine I have been using epiduo as suggested by my doc earlier.

Question

Dear Lybrate user, epiduo gel contains a combination of adapalene and benzoyl peroxide. Adapalene is similar to vitamin a. It helps the skin renew itself. Benzoyl peroxide has an antibacterial effect. It also has a mild drying effect, which allows excess oils and dirt to be easily washed away from the skin. Epiduo gel is used to treat acne vulgaris (severe acne) in people who are at least 9 years old. Our doctors usually treat this kind of issue by either administering chemical peeling or laser therapy. But they always assess the skin type and nature of the patients to determine the exact cause of this issue. We are inviting you to avail our consultation assistance. It shall help you to discuss this kind of issue with one of our senior doctors quite conveniently.
