Acne, Oily Hair. Will Ginet Help?
at what age can someone start taking Ginet for acne control? My daughter is 12 and has come off oratane which has fixed her acne on her back and chest but her face still has acne and her hair is extremly oily. My older daughter has been using Ginet for acne control and it as worked beautifully she started using it as 14, is 12 too young? She has been getting her period for about 12 months.

I would suggest you to use topical medication for mild acne or oral isotretinoin for moderate acne.
Take care
