Suggest Treatment For Oily Skin With Pimples

hi. my skin has been oily,pimplous,uneven-toned and dark-marked for a long time now. I have tried a lot of products but they just don't seem to work. That's just my facial skin. When it comes to the rest of my body,its so uneven-toned and chapped. Iwas thinking of buying Celltone snailgel extract products,but i don't know whether they will work on me. I'm only 18 years of age,i weigh 45kg but i'm not sure about my height. I don't have any medical history

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain oily skin is one of the most common cause for acne vulgaris or pimples.
Other causes can be hormonal imbalances, excessive sun exposure,bacterial infection and inflammation..
You should wash your face with a Salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewashes.
Apply a combination of benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin containing gels..
You can also apply retinoid containing gel like Adapelene gel at night..
Exfoliate your skin twice a week with a gentle face scrub..
Do cold compresses over the pimples.
wash your face frequently over the face and avoid chemical cometics over face..
You can apply aloevera gel for lubrication of face..
In case if you do not find improvement in one month consult a Dermatologist and he can advise you oral antibiotics like Muricoprin or Minocycline, oral retinioids and treatments like Microdermabrasion..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
