Combating small pus-filled pimples as well as blackheads and whiteheads involves a combination of good skincare practices and possibly some targeted treatments, especially since you’ve got combination skin. First, let’s talk about cleansing. You’ll want to use a gentle cleanser to wash your face twice daily to remove dirt and excess oil without stripping your skin of necessary moisture. Look for products labeled as “non-comedogenic” which won’t clog pores. Salicylic acid is a beneficial ingredient for both blackheads and whiteheads due to its ability to exfoliate the skin and clear out pore blockages. Similarly, benzoyl peroxide can be used to reduce bacteria and inflammation associated with pus-filled pimples—consider incorporating a benzoyl peroxide spot treatment into your routine. However, too frequent use can lead to irritation, so it’s important to be balanced—using this once a day or every other day based on your skin’s tolerance may be ideal.

Addressing your combination skin means moisturizing without overdoing it; look for a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer. For more stubborn pimples or blackheads, a retinoid cream could be effective as well, which you can use in the evening. Be mindful though that retinoids can initially cause dryness and irritation so start slow, maybe a couple of times a week, and increase as your skin tolerates it. Also, weekly exfoliation with a gentle scrub can help keep pores clear, but avoid harsh scrubbing which can aggravate your skin.

Don’t forget about sun protection since some of these treatments can make your skin more sensitive to sun damage. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. If you find these over-the-counter solutions don’t help, or if the condition worsens, it might be beneficial to see a dermatologist for personalized advice or prescription treatments. Drinking plenty of water and maintaining a balanced diet can suport healthy skin too, though they’re not direct treatments for acne, they contribute to overall skin health. Protect your skin and make small adjustments to your routine patiently, and see what works best for you.

Hello kashish By understanding your concern and listening your history I recommend you some treatment Rx- Some medications include:

Azelaic acid: This is a natural acid found in various grains such as barley, wheat and rye. It kills microorganisms on your skin and reduces swelling.

Benzoyl peroxide: This is available as an over-the-counter product (such as Clearasil®, Stridex® and PanOxyl®). Lower concentrations and wash formulations are less irritating to your skin. Irritation (dryness) is a common side effect.

Retinoids (vitamin A derivatives): Retinoids, such as Retin-A®, Tazorac® and Differin® help prevent clogged pores. You may notice a change in skin color or peeling. Using retinoids every other day or using them at the same time as a moisturizer can reduce these side effects.

Salicylic acid: This is available over-the-counter for pimples as a cleanser or lotion. It helps dissolve dead skin cells to prevent your hair follicles from clogging.

Thank you

For combination skin with small pus-filled pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads, maintain a gentle cleansing routine, use salicylic acid for exfoliation, and apply benzoyl peroxide or tea tree oil on active pimples. Always moisturize with a light, non-comedogenic lotion and use daily sunscreen to prevent marks. Consult a dermatologist if pimples persist or worsen, as prescription treatments like topical retinoids or oral medications may be needed.

Hello, Stop using any cosmetic products over face and use only dermatologically tested products. 1. Use sunscreen regularly 2. Topical Clindamycin thrice daily (for acne) 3. Rejuglow gel (for facewash) 4. Tab CF Forte once daily (multivitamin) 5. Avoid any trigger causing acne

Take care

1. Pus-filled pimples occur due to bacterial infection and excess oil blocking pores, especially in combination skin.

2. Use a salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide face wash twice daily to unclog pores and reduce acne bacteria.

3. Apply a topical antibiotic + retinoid cream (like clindamycin with adapalene at night, pea-sized amount only on affected areas).

4. Avoid squeezing pimples it worsens scarring and spreads infection.

5. Exfoliate gently once or twice weekly with a mild BHA scrub or niacinamide serum to reduce blackheads/whiteheads.

6. Maintain a non-comedogenic moisturizer and sunscreen daily this balances oil and prevents post-acne marks.

7. Reduce dairy, oily foods, and stress; drink plenty of water and sleep well.

If acne keeps recurring, visit a dermatologist you might need a short antibiotic course or hormonal acne evaluation.
