Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi, thanks for your query.
I understand your concern for acne.
Acne starts during puberty due to hormonal changes and lasts till thirties or even later.
There is no permanent cure for acne but it can be controlled with medication.

You have taken only two sessions of peel, I feel you may continue peeling, at times many sessions are required to see results.

Lomela or skin lite cream is not recommended for acne treatment as it is indicated for hyper pigmentation.
Treating acne is challenging and you need to consult an expert dermatologist and demands patience from your side.

Hope this helps you.
