Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Taking allopathic/ayurvedic/homeopathic or unani medicines is completely your choice.
As far as my field is concerned, acne can be treated effectively.
Depending upon your acne severity medicines like minocycline/doxycycline/azithromycin or isotretinoin can be started orally along with topical creams.
Please consult a wualified dermatologist for a proepr consultation. You may also use ask a specialist feature of this website.
Take care
