I was also a patient at Dr. Ranjit skin clinic. I have some mixed feelings about his clinic.
The first time I went there, i was consulted by a lady doctor (forgot the name) who works at the skin clinic.. so I've never really been consulted by Dr. ranjit himself. At that time i had moderate acne and she came to the conclusion that antibiotics would be the best to treat my acne... After 2 months or so my big red pimples did subside but I still had congested skin.. even after 8 months of antibiotics my skin was still very congested. I expressed my concern over this matter and she just told me to continue taking antibiotics without even taking a close look at my skin eventhough I've been taking it for a long period of time. I made the decision to go off the antibiotics after 9 months of consuming it for health reasons.. (beware prolonged use of antibiotics can spoil for kidney and kill all the good bacteria in your body also your body might become dependent on the drug) Touchwood my acne has not relapsed..
I think cost wise it was very affordable.. I paid around RM100 for one month supply of the pills. Just be cautious about the side effects of taking those pills..Dont trade one problem for another
What kind of antibiotic did she give you?
I get mild adult acne from time to time. The only solution is a short course of Doxymycin. I have to do this every few years. It's annoying but it works.
My cousin goes to Ranjit's clinic because she had moderate acne as a teen and still gets it in her 30s. He gives her whatever drug she asks for, which in her case I think is Accutane.
I don't care for al that and don't like what I've heard. I saw a few docs, and they tell me a minimum of 3 months on Doxymycin should do it. Usually by 1 month I get results so they let me get off.
I've had to go for CO2 laser and such to lighten the dark spots left by the pimples.
Now back on the antibiotics again after 5 years as some lame nonsense is going on with lower jaw. It's cleared up within days after taking the tablets.
