Jul 15, 2010
Ok . Im Pledgetes Clindamycin (pads) in mourning . I overnight on Differin . Now Im wondering should I switch to Clindamycin Clinac BPO or should I get to mix with my Azelex differin at night that some people said they did . I really need help on this . I want to help to maintain fewer pimples, but they recur . also . Gylcolic Acid, is it okay to use? My derm told me that she can prescribe a glycolic acid face wash, a soft one . thanks everyone hope to see some answers because I usually dont get much: (
Reply:Well, I have only been using the azeleic acid 15% for two weeks so I can't comment well on that, but I have used MD forte glycolic cleanser for about 4 – 5 years now. I guess I like it but don't leave it on too long or it will burn a bit. It will make your face a little pink and tends to exfoliate gently, but when my skin is very dry from the topicals it seems a bit too harsh. Haven't changed to another cleanser because I wouldn't know what to try. Do you have acne that comes "out" easily?? Or is it "under the skin" for awhile?? I have had some under the skin for approx 4 -5 months or so. What a nightmare..they just sit there and look red and feel hard. I guess that's why he's trying the azeleic acid, to kill bacteria and bring them up quicker. Just another in a LONG line of topicals I've tried.
