Be patient.�Acne improves slowly even with the most powerful treatments from your doctor. Do not expect much improvement in the first few weeks of any treatment. Do not pick!�Discipline yourself not to pick your spots, as this may encourage scarring.� Wash carefully.�Wash the affected area twice a day with a pH-balanced, unperfumed soap. Avoid facial scrubs and abrasive cleansers, which might increase the inflammation of the skin and make scarring more likely. Avoid heavy and greasy make-up.�Eat a well balanced diet rich in vitamin A, E and C.Drink lots of water.
