I'm 16 years old and I'm in high school and I'm suffering from mild to moderate acne pretty much exclusively on my cheek areas. My current routine is:
- Salycilic acid cleanser twice daily
- Benzoyl peroxide overnight
- Doxycycline once per day taken 30 mins before bed
I have pretty much no acne on my left cheek, however on my right cheek it is substantially worse. Is this possibly because I favour my right side when I sleep? I change pillowcases almost every night though so idk.
I also have oily skin which I figure can't help my situation.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
One thing you could try and do is stay out of direct sun,are you lile me and used to always walking on the sunny sude of the road?
if so,stay in the shade,just avoid sunlight more,sit in shade,close half your window curtain to cut down on sun light,walk on shaded side of street,have an hood or hat on and sun screen if necessary.i just put hood up till i get in a building but walk on shaded pathway.
