Acne problem
Previously dermatologist had suggested deriva cms for acne, and it works for me. But it is too expensive nowadays do we have cheaper alternative?

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 young lady,
As mentioned you appear to have an acne issue on and off that responds well to Deriva & you appear a fellow Bengalurean.
Face cleansing routine and use of a good oil free face cleansing agent like Cetaphil for oily skin and left in contact for 3-5 mins while washing face is important as well.
Acnicin gel or Clearwin plus are two suggestions you may try that should prove far cheaper cost wise and contain the same ingredients as Deriva cms gel
Good Luck 🍀
