Acne Due To Skin Dryness Even After Taking Treatment Such As Chemical Peels. How To Get Cure?
Hi doc, One year back I had acne problem, and I was treated by Kaya skin clinic, they had tried some peel off trearment and they even injected steriods once, after 6 settings of this treatment acne problem was solved, however I had extreme dryness on my skin and it had been highly sencitive , now somehow I have maintained to get out of scars and uneven tone. Almost 60 percent I feel better but still I keep getting the small acnes here and there on my face, throughout my day I sit under centralized AC and my office doors are always completely closed . Could u help me how to get a proper skin without dryness and acnes.. I want to have a clear and healthy skin . Like before. U can recommend me medical ointment also no problem cause I don believe in cosmetic products. May be if this can be a Harmony problem could you suggest me tablets.

Hi,
Aesthetic treatment like skin peeling may improve acne and its scar. But ca not prevent acne eruptions. So, antibiotics like azithromycine or minocycline may be taken for long time. Isotretinoin is another drug to improve and prevent acne. Peeling should be avoided, as it may induce dryness of skin. Clindamycine gel may be applied on the lesions. Avoid worries and stress. Take proper sleep. Avoid oily food and milk. You may be benefitted. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
