Acne occurs when sebaceous glands attached to the hair follicles are stimulated at the time of puberty or due to other hormonal changes.
Advice
1. Apply locally Clindoxyl gel (clindamycin + benzyl peroxide) at bed time for a month
2. Doxycycline 50 mg daily per oral for 30 days. If you are pregnant then do not use doxycycline
3. Use Acne aid soap three time daily for cleaning your face
4. Do not squeeze pimples as it will cause scarring
5. Keep pimples untouched
6. Try to avoid use of unbranded cosmetics unnecessarily
7. Avoid mental stress as it aggravates acne
After clearance of all pimples you can apply Melacare cream locally in face at bed time for 2 months. It will clear all dark spots. Apply is gently without rubbing. Rubbing will cause redness. Use Spectraban sensitive sunscreen before exposure to sunlight.
I hope this information will help you. I will be happy if you ask another question
