Over-the-counter Acne Promises vs. Dermatologists’ Delivery

Many of my patients come to my office after having spent tons of money on telemarketed products for severe acne. I will refrain from naming specific product names. These products are non-prescription strength and no different than other over the counter products. They usually only work on mild acne and rarely ever work on cystic or severe types of acne. They only other times they work well are for high paid, A-list celebrities…. not on normal, everyday people.

Rather then spend money on useless products you see on TV or trust what a celebrity tells you, trust a board certified dermatologist for your acne treatment. At OC Skin Institute we use a wide array of treatments for acne depending on the type and severity of acne you have including PRESCRIPTION STRENGTH creams, antibiotics, accutane, and lasers.
