Constant acne

2017-11-04 04:22:16
I’ve been having acne from past couple of years! During my freshman year, it was on face, and buttocks and upper arms! Gradually, it started appearing on my back as well! I started using a scrub along with anti-bacterial soap on my back, everyday and my bacne got pretty cleared up leaving just scars! And for my buttocks, its mostly scars now. I get one-two breakouts on my upper arms/shoulders like in a month. As for the face, the breakouts are still consistent on forehead, eyebrows and cheeks!

The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. 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.
