Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query acne problem which occurs when sebum get accumulated along with dead skin and bacteria in clogged pore of sebaceous gland. It occurs because of stress and hormonal changes as well. You should start with Accutane contains isoretinoin and is used to treat severe acne. Exfoliate your skin one a week to remove the dead skin from your face. Apply betnovate on acne twice a day for 2-3 days. If condition doesn't start getting better in a week then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may prescribe oral antibiotic course clindamycin or isoteritenoin. You should go for chemical peeling and laser therapy.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
