I've got really sensitive skin, and every acne treatment I've tried just ends up making things worse. It's been pretty frustrating. Do you have any recommendations for a cream that's gentle but effective for getting rid of dark acne marks?

Question

Can I keep using Acnestar for my pimples and marks? I've been using it for three days, but I've noticed more pimples popping up. What should I do? Any suggestions?

I'm dealing with acne and my doctor originally prescribed me Azax 500 mg, but it was out of stock at the pharmacy, so they gave me Azicip 500 mg instead. Is this an appropriate substitute for what the doctor recommended?
