Acne problem, scars and pigmentation
I have acne problem and they leave behind scars too though my skin is dry. My dermatalogist prescribed me clindoxyl gel that contains benzoyl peroxide and it dried up my skin and the mouth area got totally black. Now he suggested me clin 3 gel instead of that but the pigmentation caused by benzoyl peroxide still persist. Please suggest me any good cream that i can use along with my present prescribed cream (i.e.clin3 gel & tri o bloc) to reduce the black pigmentation around the mouth area .

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.
