A serious outbreak of body acne that cannot be easily removed by regular body washes and exfoliations should be referred to a specialist
. Dermatologists can prescribe special oral medication that can be highly effective in combating body acne. These medications are also called chemical exfoliates and work by regulating your body's hormones and oil production in the skin's sebaceous glands. Oral body acne treatments are not available over the counter and can only be obtained through a prescription from a specialist. Regardless of the treatment, always remember to practice good hygiene and regular exfoliation to maintain a healthy, acne free skin.
