Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern....

As per your complain Acne or pimples can occur due to a number of reasons like Overgrowth of oil [Sebaceous]glands,over production of oil[sebum] making skin oils,infections,inflammation and hormonal changes and imbalances..
For treatment of acne you need a combination of anti-acne and antimicrobial agents like:
1.Apply a combination of benzoyl peroxide and Clindamycin gels over the pimples.
2.Use face washes and other products containing Salicylic acid..
3.Isotretinoin containing gels can be applied as it reduces the oil production and prolifertion of oil glands..
4. Wash your face with a mild salicylic acid containing face wash and maintain a dry condition if you have an oily skin and apply aloe vera gel as it will lubricate the face but will not cause oiliness and has antibacterial properties too..
5.Medicines like Isotretinoin capsules, Clindamycin and Muricoprin can be advised by Dermatologists..
6.Some resistent cases to medicines can be treated by inoffice treatments techniques done by Dermatologists like Glycolic peels and Dermabrasion..

Consult a Dermatologist and get treated under his supervision..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
