Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing in.

Acne is a common problem but when it goes past the age of 22-23 years, then a proper evaluation is needed.

Acne eruptions may be due to many factors like PCOS, excessive make up, harsh cleansers etc.

I have a few questions for you..
1. Are your menstrual cycles regular and normal?
2. do you have hair loss?
3. do you have excessive facial hair?
4. how often do you wash your face and remove make up?
5. What treatment have you taken so far?

I need you to answer these questions to get a better understanding of your problem.

Coming to the treatment, be assured that I can help you. I have treated many severe and resistant cases with my combination treatment regimens.

I often combine medical, surgical and peeling treatments to give the best and safe results to my patients.

Please upload a picture of your lesions so that I can suggest you the most appropriate treatment. You can do this by using upload my reports feature on the left hand side of the query page or you may send it to YYYY@YYYY sub: attn dr XXXXXXX

Awaiting your response
