Suggest soap for men with oily acne face
I'm Dr. Sidharth from Kerala. I have very oily & acne prone skin & have pustular acne with scars on my face. There are pustules & scars even on my sternal area. Kindly suggest me the best bathing soap commonly available in the Indian market for male skin best suited for oily & acne skin.I know that many soaps contain harsh & irritating chemicals that can harm your skin. I workout daily in the gym & hence feel greasy & dirty at the end of the day. So kindly suggest me a very mild soap with less chemicals best suited for men's oily & acne skin which also has cleansing & antibacterial properties.

Greetings. Very mild soaps - may not be able to clear the greasiness and oils in men and especially after a work out. You could use a benzyol peroxide based creamy body wash / face wash - this would also help in eliminating bacteria apart from reducing oiliness and decreasing incidence of acne. you could also try - dermadew acne saop / acne lak soap - if they work for you - you can continue using them. See a qualified dermatologist for further queries. warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru.
