Suggest Treatment For Oily Skin And Acne Problem

Hello doctor I am a 19 year old girl I am suffering From acne problem for past two three years on top of that I have oily skin. I have been using clean and clear face wash and no other single cream. But now there are still acne but more of scars and spots. Also pits have formed with black heads for past one year which are causing my face to lose all its sheen . Somebody suggested me to use FASH FOAM face wash and EMODERM CREAM . Should I use them and I will be very grateful if you can please suggest me some medicinal solutions apart from the expensive vtreatments like microdermabrasion etc Thank you

Hi dear ,

Well this very common problem in teens which occur due to many reasons like hormonal changes at this stage of like specially with oily skin , sun exposure , stress and certain medicine . I would suggest you to wash your face twice daily with facewash containing benzoyl peroxide , after washing face apply cream containing azelaic acid which is a cereal extract and very effective and also apply vitamin C serum at night for quick healing , If condition doesn't improve in a month then consult dermatologist . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course ( minocyclin or clindamycin) at least for week. Drink plenty of water and avoid oily food .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
