Hi, I have a very oily skin especially in the face and hair. I think the oil causes acnes or something called foliculit. Foliculits and oil started at the end of the secondary schools which corresponds to puberty. I used a tablet it was good for me. It dried my skin against oil but it dried every part of my body even my eyes.The acnes in my hair had finished. But when I had stopped using that tablet after one or two years later oil and foliculits started.Foliculits also cause hair loss. I look for a permanent solution. Do you have any idea?
