Treatment depends on the grade...Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Acne can leave permanent marks on your face if you delay the treatment or don’t take the treatment at all. So I would suggest you that you should start a proper course of treatment which can completely cure your acne without leaving any marks or scars on your face..

Acne is hormonal. Whenever you go through progesterone surge the acne will bounce. But you have to have consistency in your meds application.
Acne is never one time solution.
You have to keep controlling them till they stop.
Also, procedure like chemical peels when added gives faster and better results.
