Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne on face which is because hormonal change at particular age and this condition is recurrent. I would suggest you to visit dermatologist once to get your skin examined for laser therapy. You can go for dermabrasion, Fractional CO 2 Laser, Chemical peeling,Miocroabrasion as all these are all recent methods of skin clearing. You should start with use of topical antibacterial clindamycin gel as a spot treatment for acne during day time and at night you may use a topical retinoid like Adapalene gel. Apply mashed potatoes on face to lighten skin. Apply creams rich in kojic acid and benzoyl gel as well. Don't pick up acne as it will leave scars on face.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
