Your pimples, dark spots, and recent hair fall may be due to hormonal changes, stress, or scalp issues. Start using a gentle salicylic acid face wash, apply niacinamide gel at night for scars, and use a mild anti-dandruff shampoo with biotin supplements for hair health. Please consult a dermatologist for a personalized treatment to clear your skin and stop hair fall effectively.

Pimples, Dark Spots & Scars:
If you’ve had pimples for years with dark spots and scars, it’s important to follow a consistent skincare routine and consider medical treatment if needed.
Daily Skincare Tips:
1. Cleanser: Use a gentle, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide-based face wash twice daily.
2. Moisturizer: Choose an oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturizer.
3. Sunscreen: Apply SPF 30+ daily – it prevents dark spots from getting darker.
4. Spot Treatment: Use products with niacinamide, azelaic acid, or adapalene gel (only at night) for dark spots and pigmentation.
5. Avoid picking/squeezing pimples – it worsens scarring.
Medical Treatment Options:
Dermatologist-prescribed creams: Like retinoids (for scars), antibiotic gels (for pimples).
Chemical Peels / Laser: For stubborn scars and pigmentation (done at a clinic).
Oral medications: Like antibiotics or hormonal treatment, if acne is severe.
Hair Fall Tips:
Sudden hair fall can be due to stress, diet, or health issues.
Basic Care:
1. Use a mild, sulfate-free shampoo and a nourishing conditioner.
2. Apply coconut or onion oil twice a week for scalp massage.
3. Eat protein-rich foods (eggs, pulses, milk) and green vegetables.
4. Avoid heat styling, tight hairstyles, and chemical treatments.
Medical Advice:
If hair fall continues or worsens, you may need biotin supplements, vitamin D, or to rule out thyroid/iron deficiency with simple blood tests.
A dermatologist can suggest minoxidil lotion or other treatments if needed.
