Many pimples on my face and forhead - #13139

Hello dear See after thorough evaluation,it seems acne are due to either hormonal alterations or physiological variation. Iam suggesting some precautions and medication. Please follow them for atleast a month Medications: 1. Topical Treatments -Benzoyl Peroxide (2.5–5%) twice a day for week Salicylic Acid, Adapalene 0.1% can also be given as additive medications. 2.Clindamycin 1% Clindac A ,Tretinoin ( if already not taken). 3.Azelaic Acid 10 percent for two weeks. 4. Oral Medications -tablet Doxycycline 1 month twice a day Niacinamide serum –antiinflammatory in nature twice daily for 1 week In addition use aloevera - tulsi solution to apply topically for 1 month

In case of no improvement in 1 month, kindly consult dermatologist in person for better clarification Hopefully you recover soon Regards

Hello Ghrita, I understand this might be disturbing but I’m here to help. Here is how we can approach your issues -

1. Lifestyle tips - Avoid high glycemic foods (sugary, refined carbs). Limit dairy (milk, cheese) if acne worsens after intake. Manage stress, sleep well, hydrate adequately. Avoid scrubbing, fairness creams, and heavy oils.

2. Here is my prescription and skin care -

- Use a gentle, non-comedogenic face wash (eg. Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser / Sebamed Clear Face) - Use an oil free, spf 30+ sunscreen (eg. Re’equil Oxybenzone & OMC Free Sunscreen SPF 50 OR Bioderma Photoderm AKN Mat SPF 30/50) - Gel/Cream Clindamycin + Adapalene - Apply thin layer at night - Gel Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% - Good for pus pimples. Apply at night. - Cap. Doxycycline 100mg twice a fay × 14 days

3. It would have been better if I can have a look at your acne. It’ll give me more idea on how to approach it. But for the starters you can take the above treatment and review after 14 days.

Feel free to reach out again.

Thank you

Hello,

🛑For Acne Adapalene gel (0.1% at night, very thin layer) OR benzoyl peroxide gel (2.5–5%). Use only on acne spots

Do NOT pick/squeeze pimples – this worsens pigmentation.

#For Pigmentation/Marks

🛑Niacinamide 5% serum (morning or night, if skin is not irritated). Azelaic acid acid 10–15% cream/gel at night (safe for marks and acne both). Consistency is key,pigmentation takes 2–3 months to lighten.

Lifestyle

Avoid excess dairy, junk, sugary foods. Drink enough water, get 7–8 hrs sleep. Manage stress (yoga, meditation, walks help).

If acne is not receding please consult a dermatologist in person

Thank you dear
