Cetaphil Cleaner
Is Cetaphil acne cleanser good for acne prone skin as per dermatologist? I am using this from 2 weeks & find no difference. I doubt if the tap water is causing any issues.

Hello dear. Cetaphil is an excellent skincare product and an adjuvant in acne management. However, it will not make your pimples go away. For active acne, you need some more medicines which I'm sure your dermatologist must have prescribed.
Next Steps
Continue with your medication.

Hello,
Cetaphil cleanser is no.1 brand suggested by dermatologist and its highly recommended for acne prone skin
But alone face wash won't help in clearing those zits as you need to have a proper skincare routine so that you can clear those acne and pigmentation (if any)
Pros: Cetaphil is mildest of all facewash so it won't be harsh on your acne treated skin (especially in retinoid induced dermatitis)
- Cleansing effect is such that your NMF is not at all affected so no trigger to excess sebum production hence no clogging and no acne
Cons: As its non foamy, you won't feel that cleaned face every time so if you are fond of foaming facewash ( like me😉) then cetaphil is definitely not your choice
Next Steps
Consult me online to know about suitable products according to skintype and for dealing with acne
