The acne around my chin and cheeks just won't go away.
No matter how many skincare products I change, the acne around my chin and cheeks just won't go away, so I am seriously considering signing up for a deep care program at a dermatology clinic. Should I prioritize getting a prescription for and taking oral acne medication? Or I keep wavering on whether it would be a wise choice to combine it with dermatological treatments like laser therapy or scaling.
I am a bit afraid of the side effects of medication, such as extreme lip dryness or liver strain, and the cost of dermatological treatments is also a significant burden, so I feel completely at a loss as to which direction to take. What is the most efficient and safest way to start acne treatment, in what order or combination? I would really appreciate your experiences and advice from those who have personally received treatment or managed their skin.

- 02CommentsI can relate to your concern about looking into hospital care because squeezing at home seems to leave worse marks; as I also have acne-prone skin, this feels like a relatable situation. Among the questions you summarized, whether to take a break from exfoliating products or retinol during the treatment period is something I was also curious about. Since the area comes into contact with a scarf, I suggest asking about the material and washing frequency during the consultation as well.210026.11.06
