  • Read here to cope with side effects of acne treatments HERE.

Alternatives:

Due to various reasons,some products might not be accessible though I wouldn’t suggest altering this current regime as much as possible.The below listed are next best options keeping in mind people residing outside India.


This regimen is not very harsh or rigorous because acne is not severe, so regimen is designed to address to treat mild acne.Once acne gets better,you can skip Metrogyl/Acne cream and continue with rest of the regimen for maintenance of skin and avoid future breakouts.
