Pimples and pimple marks
I have sensitive oily skin. I always have pimples on my face, not much but one or the other day i get one pimple on my face. Chin area is the most prone to pimples in my face. I am using cetaphil facewash and sometimes I use aloevera gel on my face. I rarely use any moisturiser Or cream on my face.
I want to completely cure pimples but i am unable to find any solution. I use home remedies like haldi besan honey paste on my face two to three times a week still the pimples appear on my face.
Can you suggest some food habit change Or lifestyle change Or any medications that can completely cure my pimples

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 send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.,
