Acne face and pimples on upper body.
I get a lot of acne and blackheads on my face. Not only this I get whiteheads and pimples on my neck, chest and back. I have this acne problem since I was 13 but this pimple problem started last year when I came to kota. I went to a number of doctors but it wasn't cured. Last doctor gave me LACTOBEX and MINOZ ER45. My medication is on the verge to complete but the problem hasn't got any better. I SERIOUSLY need some help.
Thank you

Acne can be treated easily with facewash, tablets and creams. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated. Please call me or send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.,
