So as a parent, what's your plan of action when your teen develop acne? I think one of the most important things to do first is to explore with them how they feel about it. What kind of impact is it having on their quality of life? There are times when it bothers the child and not the parent, bothers the parent and not the child and just make sure you're on the same page there. If it doesn't bother your child and your child is well-adjusted and confident, it's okay not to treat it aggressively. But if it does bother them and you agree, the first step if possible is to see a dermatologist to confirm that it is standard acne and to get the best possible treatment. Now I acknowledge that that's not possible for everyone, so what can you do at home? The first thing is to get your child on a reasonable skincare regiment. So morning and night gentle cleansing and oil-free moisturizing. There are so many products out there that have claims about acne treatment. They are scrubs, they are toners and most of them cause more problems than they do good for your child so don't waste your money. If you're going to try something, an over-the-counter for mild acne, benzyl peroxide is one of the oldest topical treatments we have and it's highly effective. It actually penetrates well into the oil gland, it reduces bacterial balance, it helps with inflammation. Now be ready, it can cause symptoms of dry and peeling and those are ones that you can combat with your gentle soap-free cleanser and moisturizer. It will also bleach pillows and PJs, so be ready and have old pillows and old PJs so that doesn't happen. If a trial of benzyl peroxide for a couple of months isn't helping your child, then you really should see your family doctor or your dermatologist to get better treatment.
