The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. 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 send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.

Recurrent Acne or pimples with spots is usually a chronic disease caused by changes in hormone levels in young age and more in people with oily skin types. This treatment takes longer time to respond with conventional medicines. There are lots of medicines available for the treatment of this with reasonable success rate. Dont worry. If your problem still persists you can consult me through practo online by private consult.
