Patient: greetings doctor........ iam suffering from back acne from a few months......iam taking much personal cleanliness yet i see no decrease in acne......first i tried natural remedies like baking soda ,lemon, honey etc....the real problem is the acne left scars.....i am very fair and so those brown scars are highly visible on my back....finally iam trying Glyco-6 cream from a couple of days.....is it enough or shall i go for higher concentrated glycolic acid....also suggest me other efficient remedies to remove the scars.......i hope ur suggestions make my back scar-free..... Doctor: hi there. acne of the back is difficult to get rid of easily. what you should do is 1. use salicylic acid body wash twice a day 2. session of IPL every 3 to 4 weeks 3. microdermabrasions for dark spots 4. avoid oily junk food 5.no oil over body 6. red acne spots need cream clobetasole+ momet combination 7. may need to take doxy 200 twice a day for 2 weeks.  then see the effect. all the best.
