• This looks like chronic acne with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) + sensitive oily skin + enlarged pores
• Main issue = wrong / too many products damaging skin barrier → leading to more acne + irritation + pigmentation
Important Rules
• Do NOT use multiple actives together → causes irritation
• Avoid: scrubs, facials, home remedies, random cosmetics
• Keep routine simple and consistent for 8–12 weeks
• Acne around chin/upper lip → often hormonal

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.

Hi there...
Please post some clear pics and 📥 connect directly using this App's INSTANT ONLINE Consultation or any other App linked to Practo eg Apollo 24/7 and will prescribe an affordable treatment but it will have to be taken for a minimum of 3-6 months to clear your issue.
Also, given your demographics you will have to check for PCOS issues as well.
Either way, don't worry it can be sorted easily and quickly and in an affordable manner.
