Acne is not just an adolescent problem. It can occur in midlife, especially in women. There are many different types of acne treatment. For mild acne, there are over-the-counter lotions that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. This will not stop future acne, but it will dry up the existing acne. For acne that is more of a problem, there are antibiotics that can be taken. Topical and oral antibiotics will kill the bacteria that cause acne, with the oral antibiotics being more effective than the topical. Another effective acne treatment is Retinoid, which is derived from Vitamin A. Retinoids work best with either the lotions or antibiotics.
Laser skin care treatments may help acne in the future, but right now there is not any proof that it is helpful at all, and they have many side effects. One way in which lasers may help, is by reducing the scars from acne.
