Maintaining an effective skin care regimen is a preventative measure for managing clean and healthy skin. Cleansers, exfoliators, and moisturizers can help to remove dirt, oil, and potentially harmful debris. If your daily skin care regimen and self care is unsuccessful at managing your breakouts, you should seek a consultation with a medical professional. A dermatologist can accurately assess your skin to determine the best route for treatment. They may either prescribe an oral prescription, or possibly a medical grade topical that you can massage on your skin daily.
