Treatment of acne depends on the stage and severity of the condition. Very good results can be obtained if you are under regular treatment-the duration of the treatment lasting from 6-9 months. The problem of relapse occurs because most of the time either the medicines are not applied properly or not applied for the needed duration or the treatment is stopped midway or irregular. Topical retinoids' application at night for six to nine months is needed for good results as that is the time needed for microcomedones population to reduce to low level please visit the nearest dermal who will decide the stage and chalk out a management plan for you. Also one thing you need to strictly follow is that you need to continue the medicines for at least 6-9 months if you want to get rid of acne for quite a long duration.  Regards Chat Doctor.
