Question

I've seen my dad use Sofradex cream for his psoriasis, and he's had good results with it. I'm 19 and struggling with a lot of pimples on my face and neck. Is it okay for me to use the same cream for my pimples? I'm not sure if it's suitable, and I'd really like to get my skin looking better. What do you think?
