Help!! My skin is really dry and is acne-prone...!!!?

My skin is really dry every time after I wash my face. I think it is because I overused my acne cream. It contains sulfur as the main ingredient. The skin peels and I have to use a moisturizer. However, after a few hours, my face will become quite oily, especially around the nose area.





Should I switch my acne cream to Dalacin T (lotion)? Is it good? Please give me reviews. Also, I am now on a course of antibiotics (doxycycline). I use Neutrogena Deep Clean cleansing foam to wash my face. Right now, my face has some pimples but the acne scars are quite obvious. Do topical creams get rid of them?





Please help me! Thanks a lot!!

Topical creams don't get rid of scars. You will most likely need laser or microdermabraision for the scars at a dermatologists office. Since you are on the antibiotics do not use the acne products on your face as they may be making it worse. Use the Neutrogena wash but then try going without the acne products for a while to give the Doxycycline time to work.
Reply:I used to have acne but then I did a few simple changes. The biggest and most important thing is to drink a lot of water. You'll probably want to drink about 12 cups a day. Also, continue using a light moisturizer. I think your skin regimen sounds fine now but if you really need product help, consult a dermatologist. They'll give you the best answer. Good luck!
