Acne, hairfall& dandruff ,small bumps , tiny pores, blackheads - #10551
Hello Doctor, I’m experiencing some skin issues on my face. I’ve been noticing small red pimples and spots mostly on my cheeks. Some of them leave dark marks after healing. The breakout isn’t very severe but it’s persistent and affects my confidence. Even I have dandruff and hairfall problem I’m not sure what’s causing it — it could be due to hormonal changes, diet, or skincare. Kindly guide me on the right treatment or skincare routine. I’d really appreciate your advice. Thank you

Doctors’ responses
The issue you are suffering is most probably related to hormonal imbalance
We can try hormonal disease diagnosis for later as testing is expensive compared to others For diet as you Try taking fibrous diet avoid oily and spicy food Skin care would be Use cleanser like Cetaphil twice day Apply moisturizer twice after cleanser Apply benzoyl peroxide 2.5 % over the acne only once daily Avoid any makeup products or any home remedy which might be blocking the duct
For dark spots apply vit c serum or serum Niacinamide Serum 5% once or twice post face washing
For hormonal reason Get fsh LH prolactin Testosterone Thyroid USG pelvis for pcos Follow up with reports
Even I have body odour (armpit) & Makeup products also not suits me After applying makeup next day probably I’m getting acne what will be the reason Even I’m using makeup only in occasions
would suggest you to avoid make up And for body odour i would suggest you to use 1 percent salicylic acid daily body wash and scrub it Avoid using deodorant spray
And get checked with endocrinologist for pcos or thyroid causing excessive odour and weight
