Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the recurrent pimples do suggest possible infection with Propionibacterium most likely. Guidelines for better recovery

- cleansing of face with gentle facewash of fresh fruit pack
- avoid harsh rubbing
- avoid prolong sun exposure and if needed use sunscreen lotion with 50 F unit
- supplementary prescription of anti oxidants as zinc and others
- many times use of doxycycline or minocycline for a period of 10 days help great
- avoid smoking if involved.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
