How effective is Agnes laser treatment for acne at the chin? (photo)

Doctor's Answers 1

I usually combine different treatments for such cases.

This include topicals, oral medications and machine driven treatment.

For your case, besides topical antibiotics, oral Isotretinoin (eg.Oratane) will be worth considering in combination with machine-driven treatment such as lasers. Agnes also targets acne via Radiofrequency energy but is not a permanent cure for acne.

Do have a consult with your doctor so that an appropriate treatment plan can be tailored to your needs. Hope that helps. All the best!

Should I go to an aesthetic clinic or the NSC for acne treatment in Singapore?

In a nutshell, I think that the single most important factor is that the doctor takes a genuine interest in you, and treating your condition. Other considerations are secondary. Of course, as Dr Winston pointed out, it’s very important that you’re compliant to the treatment regime as well.

Is oral spironolactone effective for the treatment of acne?

Permanent solution? Roaccutane. Personally, I don’t subscribe to the scary effects that the internet and some doctors make it out as having, because there have been many good studies that show it is a very safe drug, if prescribed and managed appropriately. You can read this previous post about accutane in Singapore, and my personal experience with it. Having said that, spironolactone is also a very good choice in acne treatment for females, especially if you find that your acne is hormonal (happens cyclically, say around your periods), and occurs mostly at your jaw/chin/neck.
