Since acne is a very common problem that over 85% of teens face at one point or another, it is not always necessary to visit a doctor when a mild breakout occurs.  At-home treatments such as the LexLi Acne Kit means a visit to the doctor is not necessary to receive medical solutions.  The philosophy for deciding whether or not to see a doctor is simple: watch and wait.  Acne will clear up over time by using the LexLi Acne Kit or various other at-home treatments.  Acne problems will not be solved overnight & may take as long as two weeks to clear up.  But there are certain signs you should look out for when deciding whether or not a doctor consultation is necessary for your breakout:

• You have been using at-home treatment for up to eight weeks and the breakout is not improving at all or getting worse.
• Blemishes increase in size and become either hard or filled with fluid.
• Facial hair development in women.
• Your current breakout started after taking a doctor prescribed medication.
• Your skin came into contact with oils, chemicals, or other harsh substances that led to a breakout (always seek medical care immediately if the chemicals are known to be dangerous to humans).
• Scars develop after your acne starts to disappear.
