Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Acne vulgaris (or simply acne) is a long-term skin condition characterized by areas of blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, greasy skin, and possibly scarring. The resulting appearance may lead to anxiety, reduced self-esteem, and in extreme cases, depression or thoughts of suicide. Having pimples are normal at your age. Sometimes acne is a symptom of an underlying hormone condition that can cause far more than facial blemishes.

Many treatment options are available to improve the appearance of acne including lifestyle changes, procedures, and medications. Eating fewer simple carbohydrates like sugar may help. Consult a skin specialist for treatment options.
