Hello doctor, my dermatologist prescribed a medicine today for acne and open pores. He prescribed benzoyl peroxide 2.5 .i heard that it is only for acne. Can this cream cure open pores? And my dermatologist told me that it cures only 30% if I use continuously for one year. And he said laser treatment also. But I don't prefer laser due to fear. Can you pls tell me is there any way to cure open pores. Now I have small open pores. Can I shrink the pores by using this benzoyl peroxide gel? Or can you suggest any home made packs? Pls answer my all questions.
