Brief Answer:
Topical therapy-acne /pimples

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
Minimal to moderate pauci-inflammatory disease of acne /pimples may respond adequately to local therapy alone.

Topical agents such as retinoic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or salicylic acid may aid in the resolution of preexisting cysts.
Topical antibacterial agents such as azelaic acid, topical erythromycin, or clindamycin are also useful adjuncts to therapy.
Possibly gel your doctor prescribed might contain some of these ingredients as they are the standard local therapy for pimples.
