The active ingredients often target only one cause of acne – help to control abnormal shedding of skin cells, or kill bacteria or reduce excess oil production. Newer combination treatments have been developed that include several active ingredients and target multiple factors at the same time. The main active ingredients in topicals are: Retinoids, Antibiotics, and Benzoyl peroxide
