Hello doctor! my skin type is oily and I have acne on my face. Can I use bha for acne? I've never used salicylic acids on my face. Currently i'm using benzoyl peroxide for acne and i'm having vitamin a and d capsules. But most of the ppl were saying "bha" is very good in clearing blackheads n keeping pores clean n it prevents acne formation also. So i'm very curious about this. Pls clarify my doubts. Can I use bha for acne as a beginner? If yes then how much percentage is good for beginners 2% or 4%? Does bha can cause purging?.. Kindly answer my questions! thanks.
