Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acute acne on face since 4 years which is because infection of sebaceous gland under the hair follicle , when sebum get accumulated in clogged duct of sebaceous gland along with dead skin and bacteria they produce acne. I would suggest you to :-

-Drink plenty of water.

-Apply apple cider vinegar.

-Apply vitamin E oil at night.

-Avoid greasy creams ,use water based products.

-Don't pick or touch acne.

-Wash you face 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil ,dust and bacteria on your face.

If acne still persists consult dermatologist for proper examination .Doctor may prescribe clindamycin , ointments containing benzyol peroxide,azelaic acid or retinoids. You can go for laser therapy as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
