Hello.
Applying anything externally on skin will give temporary effects and does not have any effect on the root cause.
My suggestion is to take Homoeopathic treatment to cure it completely and without external application.

Hello.
Neem oil can be applied for pimples, but I suggest that you DO NOT USE IT DIRECTLY but on the other hand mix it with some other carrier oil like avocado oil or jojoba oil and then apply. Do remember that neem oil has a strong smell so it can't be used as a skincare regime when you go out.
While there are many articles all over the internet that neem oil is an effective solution for pimples, you should remember that this claim is very subjective and is dependent on skin types and skin sensitiveness.
Please do a patch test with a very small quantity of the oil before you use it on the pimples. There is a chance that neem oil can cause skin irritation, rashes, dryness of skin etc.
