Acne or something else?
Hey I am Vanya
I am 22 year old female.
I used to never have any issue of acne or pimples except occasionally during my periods. But since the last 1 year my face has gotten progressively very bad and I am concerned about it. Please help me out as to how should I proceed. I never specifically used any special creams or moisturizers or serums. Just common drugstore moisturizers. Recently used foxtale and aqualogica ones. Please help me out . Will my face go back to being clear again? I have developed a new insecurity which I never had as an adolescent. I did have some bumps on my face which once I got checked by a dermatologist, he said it's due to excess body fat. I weigh 85Kg. I have been trying to loose weight but I gain it back and more than before.
Please help me with my skin issues. I have uploaded pictures for reference.

Acne and pimples are due to hormonal imbalance. Stress, high glycemic index food items, disturbed sleep contribute to hormonal imbalance. Kindly consult for better management.
