Answers:
The peeling alone will probably not scar!.!.!.but it depends how much peeling!. Is it more of a flaking!? Just dont pick it!.!.!.picking causes scars!.

YES YES YES use moisturizer!.!.!.its a common misconception that moisturizer clogs pores, but it doesnt!. Almost ALL of them are non-comenogenic, which means!.!.!.it wont clog pores!.

You need to find a balance, so using a good moisturizer will help, and also try more of a milky cleanser!. NOT a foaming one!.

Foaming = removes oil(which you're lacking right now) and you do need some on your skin!. to keep it hydrated!.!.!.
Milky = doesnt take off the oil!.!.!.and its better for DRY/DEHYDRATED skin!.

I hope this helps you! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Acne is usually on people who have oily skin so the medications dries out your skin!. Your skin also produces more oil when it gets dry and the medication is counteracting that!. There is a conflict between what your body wants to do and what the medication is doing!.

Try using an all natural moisturizer at night while sleeping!. The Kathleen Lewis Vitamin Cream is not bad!. Thats one kind of all natural facial moisturizer!. By all means, do not exfoliate, no facial scrubs!.

Try drinking looooots of water too!. No more then 3 liters a day though!. Make sure your electrolytes are not low when drinking all that water!. Eat some brocoli, bananas, or drink a g2 every so often!.

Change your diet and lifestyle and you will not have these acne problems to begin with!.

Try eating better!. Eat looooots more organic fresh vegetables!. Eat less sugar and sugary foods!. Eliminate the bad carbohydrates and all junk food too!.

Exercise helps with overall health as well!. Those who exercise tend to have less skin problems!. Try doing more cardio and lightweight weightlifting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Acne medications will often dry out your skin and increase pimples!. When your skin dries out, you produce more oil to give your skin moisture!. This oil clogs your pores and causes more acne!. Instead of using acne medication, use facial lotion!. Most facial lotions do not contain petroleum based oils and will not clog your pores!. Lotion will increase the moisture of your skin and reduce oil production!. If you have severe acne, consider applying the acne medication after you wash your face!. Then apply facial lotion to counteract the drying caused by the medication!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is probably the alcohol from the acne medication, that dries out your skin!. It would be okay to apply lotion to make it less dry, but try applying a lotion with very little oil, other wise the oil will clog your pores, and the acnes might reappear!.
