Hi thanks the query..applying lime juice doesn't cure acne.it can worsen your skin problem.consider drinking lime juice for other good health purposes.please visit a qualified dermatologist in your area and discuss various treatment options available based on the severity of acne you have.oral and topical treatment are affective and also discuss regarding chemical peels.all the best.
