Before (left) and After (right)
Acne grows uncontrollably? Do you want to reduce the number of acne spots on your face? Acne does not only affect teenagers, men and women in their 30s may also have acne problem. Acne is affected by factors such as hormonal activity due to age or stress, medication, hereditary, or poor diet. 

Perhaps you have tried heaps of acne medication without any satisfying result. Some may even have long term consequences. For instance, skin thinning that makes your skin sensitive to sunlight and your blood vessels visible, depression, or allergic reaction to acne medicines. Antibiotic acne medication may cause acne-causing bacteria become antibiotic resistant. Thus, stronger dose or different kind of antibiotic is required.
