Hi,

As per your query, you have severe acne on cheeks which could be due to environmental change, hormonal imbalance, stress and clogging of skin pores.

I would suggest you wash your face with face-wash containing salicylic acid, exfoliate your skin once a week, apply raw honey on acne for 15 minutes daily and then wash, drink plenty of water and eat fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. You should avoid oily and sharp food. You can apply adapalene gel as well at night. Ointments containing benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid or retinoids will be beneficial for you. Visit dermatologist once if symptoms keep on persisting and get a proper prescription and start treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
