My name is Nisha and I am 31 years old with a wheatish complexion.My only problem is acne scars not much though as i get few pimples every month and when that goes off it leaves a mark..I have also got small moles on the face..Can you suggest a best treatment for this
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have facial acne along with scarring on face which is very common problem and hormonal changes , stress , oily skin and excessive exposure to sun are all possible causes for this. I would suggest you to wash your face with face wash containing benzoyl peroxide then apply cream containing azelaic acid which is safe and very effective. If condition doesn't get better in a month then consult dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment . Doctor may prescribe retinoid ointment and antibiotic like clindamycin. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables also drink plenty of water. Apply vitamin E before going to bed to fine texture of skin . Exfoliate your skin with non comedogenic exfoliant oncw a week to remove dead skin .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
