To get rid of acne, the following measures can be taken: 1. Keep the face clean: Choose facial cleansers suitable for your skin type, and regularly remove excess oil and dirt to avoid clogged pores. Avoid over-cleansing and friction, which may irritate the skin. 2. Dietary adjustments: Reduce intake of spicy, greasy, and sweet foods. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to maintain a balanced diet, which helps regulate endocrine function and reduce sebum production. 3. Lifestyle habits: Ensure adequate sleep, avoid staying up late, and reduce stress, which helps maintain normal skin metabolism and repair functions. 4. Topical medications: Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as tretinoin cream or adapalene gel may be used. These medications help dissolve comedones, reduce sebum production, and promote skin repair. 5. Professional treatment: If acne is severe or persists, seek medical attention promptly.
