Can acne be treated with traditional medicine?

My sixth-grade son is going through puberty, and his growth hormone secretion is very active, so he has severe acne. We are visiting a dermatologist, and it seems to improve a little when he takes medication, but if we neglect his skincare even a little, it all comes back worse than before.

Every time I see the child's face, I feel both disgusted and upset.

It seems that acne is not influenced by genetics.

My husband and I didn't have acne, but our son, I wonder who he takes after, his whole face is a paradise of acne.

I got scolded while taking a picture. ㅠㅠ

This area is the cheek, but the forehead is completely covered with acne. The forehead is more severe, possibly due to the influence of the bangs.

Since dermatological treatments are not addressing the root cause, it seems like the effects are only temporary.

I found on Naver that acne can be treated with traditional Korean medicine. Has anyone ever received acne treatment through traditional Korean medicine?

In traditional Korean medicine, it is believed that acne occurs due to excessive sebum secretion, decreased function of internal organs, overwork, lack of sleep, stress, and constitutional factors. Therefore, to effectively treat acne, treatment involves not only external methods but also herbal medicine that prevents excessive sebum production and improves the circulation of qi and blood in the body, along with personalized internal treatments for acne. Is it really possible to treat acne with traditional Korean medicine?
