Treatment involves both oral and topical medicines. Oral antibiotics (such as tetracycline) are commonly prescribed; the dose may be initially high and then be tapered to maintenance levels.
A topical (skin) antibiotic cream such as metronidazole (Metrocream) is useful to reduces the inflammation and the redness. Other topical antibiotic creams include erythomycin and clindamycin (Cleocin).
Short-term topical cortisone (steroid) preparations of the right strength may also be used to reduce local inflammation. Some doctors are trying tretinoin (Retin-A) or isotretoin (Accutane), prescription medications also used for acne, or permethrin (Elimite) cream, which is used for the mites that cause scabies.
alk your dermatologist for "topicort" ointment.
Use topical medication such as metronidazole, erythomycin or clindamycin. Make sure to apply gently so you dont aggravate the skin any more than it is
try la roche posay’s rosaliac gel, it helps get rid of it, and make it less noticeable. also a good makeup remover, and it clears up breakouts fast!!! hope this helps, ^_^;
Theres a natural remedy called Rosa Mosqueta Oil. I don’t know much about it, try google.
Metro cream
