Hello Doctor, I am a 28 year old male. I have been having acne and pimples since I was 20 years old. My acne always forms very dark purplish or dark maroon scars, even though I never touch them at all. Most of the time, my acne is very large and always has a very broad surface. The acne keeps recurring, hence not allowing the previous scars to fade. My acne is always on both side of my cheeks only. I don't have acne on any other parts of my face and body. For this problem, I had been prescribed many oral antibiotics as well as topical creams like benzoyl peroxide and retin-a over the years. Nothing worked at all. I have stopped medications now. For the past couple of months, I have stopped taking any sweet/sugary foods, and also stopped high carbohydrate foods like white rice, white bread, noodles, potatoes and anything that is made of refined flour. So now, I eat wholemeal bread for breakfast, and chapati for lunch and dinner everyday. I take enough vegetables and fruits everyday. I also drink more than 2.5 litres of water everyday. I am currently using the Medimix ayurvedic soap to wash my face twice a day. However, my acne is still coming back just like before, and it is again forming very large dark scars. Hope you can advice me on what I can do to solve this issue. I have attached photos of my acne on both cheeks, the photos were taken today. Should I continue my zero sugar and zero high carbohydrate diet, and continue to wash my face with Medimix soap? Do you think it might be due to hormones, and it will go away after some time? Thank you Doctor.
