All About Pimples

May have to note cleanliness too if the child has sensitive skin. Forehead and back of neck are the areas prone to skin problem as they are obscured by hair and could trap dirt, perspiration, shampoo & soap residue, etc. It happens to me

I swear by Nixoderm. Cheap and good.

Any recommendation of beauty salon or clinics or products for young boys (age 12- 15) ? Shall we leave it alone because it is puberty period ?

My niece used to have pimples especially when she goes to sec 1. I asked her to use Clean & Clear. Also make sure that she uses it at least once in am and once at night. Now in Sec 3, see significant less outbreak and she is less conscious about pimples too.

If serious condition, maybe it's better to see a doc rather than visiting beauty saloon? I don't know.... I think I trust doc more than those saloon.

dermatologist may prescribe anitbiotic for serious persistent case


make sure don’t touch with dirty fingers which will make it worse / inflame it

Have you tried pimple cream with tea-tree ointment in it. It worked for my
niece. I think better not to leave it alone as boys would sometimes touch it or burst it, leaving scars.

visited a doc recently and was advised to keep skin clean by washing regularly, ie, 3~4 times daily. Also told not to apply any cream on them.

Dunno if that's the correct way coz I read that your face will produce even more sebum if you wash too often coz the skin thinks it's dry. Just wash once in the morning and once before you sleep. Ladies should also use a makeup remover.
