At 916SKIN, we treat acne without the use of prescription medication. Our acne program is designed to get patients clear in 12 to 16 weeks.
Now, about keeping your hands off your face...
Treating acne is multi-factorial, and there are many things you can do to help control the disease. You can start by keeping your hands off of your face! Most of us don't realize just how much we touch our face throughout the day. When patients initially come into the clinic, I will point out that they keep touching their face. By the time their next visit rolls around, they often tell me they were surprised by how often they caught themselves touching their face once I brought it to their attention. We do it when we're nervous, when we study, when we have an itch, or sometimes for no reason at all. Bacteria exists on your skin... and in your follicles (pores) no matter how well you cleanse, but keeping your hands off of your face is one more step you can take towards controling the bacteria, and controlling your acne.
