Acne treatments are vastly improved over what was available a generation ago, but there are still debates about the best choices for both avoiding acne episodes and for treating them.

Acne free skin can require dietary and exercise changes as well as topical creams. There are many regimens for acne treatment, some from traditional health care sources and some that are natural remedies brought forth in alternative medicine.
