Question 1

I keep struggling with acne on my face and back pretty much all year round. A friend mentioned I should try using MomateF cream. Is it safe or effective for back acne? What exactly does this cream do?

Accepted Answer

Momate-F cream contains Mometasone which is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation, redness, and swelling. It is primarily used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. However, it is not typically recommended for treating acne as it may not target the underlying causes of acne effectively. For acne on your back, I would recommend using a topical treatment containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid. These ingredients are more effective in treating acne by unclogging pores, reducing bacteria, and preventing new acne breakouts. You can try using Benzac AC gel on your back acne. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to cleanse the area thoroughly before applying the gel. Remember to patch test any new product on a small area of skin before applying it to larger areas to check for any adverse reactions.

Accepted Answer

You may be experiencing a condition known as hand eczema, which can be exacerbated by psoriasis. To help with the dryness, cracking, and discomfort, I recommend using a prescription-strength corticosteroid cream like Clobetasol (0.05%) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil Restoraderm lotion multiple times a day to keep your skin hydrated. Make sure to protect your hands from harsh chemicals and wear gloves when doing any tasks that involve getting your hands wet. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Accepted Answer

Since your acne situation has improved but you are still experiencing breakouts, it may be beneficial to switch to a different face wash. You can try using a face wash containing benzoyl peroxide, such as "Benzac AC Gel" in a suitable concentration for your skin type. It is effective in treating acne and preventing future breakouts. Remember to follow the dosage instructions provided on the product packaging.
