This video discusses various acne treatments, including LED light therapy, the avoidance of certain acne trends, the use of azelaic acid and sulfur, hydrocolloid pimple patches, and Accutane microdosing. Dr. Idriss aims to provide viewers with unexpected and sometimes controversial acne treatment options.
The benefits of azelaic acid include its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to reduce hyperpigmentation. It's also safe to use during pregnancy. Sulfur, while having an unpleasant smell, offers antimicrobial effects and helps regulate sebum production. It can be used as a cleanser, mask, or spa treatment. However, the smell may be a significant drawback for some users.
