Acne happens mainly due to hormones and it usually affects people in age group 15 to 30 years ( rarely till 35years). In this age group it is difficult to achieve complete cure but we can control it with treatment. Acne treatment depends on type and stage and once it clears, we can treat spots and scars. Even after complete clearance you need to continue the maintainance therapy to prevent further acne.
Next Steps
Avoid touching pimples to prevent spots and scars.
Next Steps
use a salicylic acid based face wash twice daily and avoid oily creams
