Hi. Greetings. Acne usually occur due to hypersensitivity of the sebaceous oil glands in the skin to the surging levels of sex hormones at puberty. This may continue to age of sing twenty five... However this can be controlled by general measures and medications. There may not be one time cure to acne! Milk - excessive consumption can worsen acne. Reduce intake of chocolates and junk food too. Use a topical retinoid cream daily night. You may need a short course of antibiotics. Discuss other suitable forms of treatment with your dermatologist. Hope this helps. Warm regards. Dr Govind S Mittal, excel care hospital, Bangalore.
