Please do not worry. Effective treatment options are available; however, management depends on the severity and extent of the condition. A detailed medical history is essential for appropriate evaluation and treatment planning.
Kindly schedule an online consultation with a dermatologist for a comprehensive assessment, prescription, and further guidance.”

Vitamin C tablets are generally safe for a healthy 19 year old, since it's water soluble and any extra is passed out in urine rather than stored in the body. Most people notice a difference in skin or immunity only after a few months of consistent use, not right away.
Next Steps
If your diet already includes citrus fruits, amla or leafy greens, you may not need a supplement at all. See a dermatologist or physician before starting it regularly, so they can confirm it actually fits your need.
Health Tips
Stop it and check with your doctor if you notice stomach upset, acidity or loose stools after starting.
