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.

dandruff in head will directly traslate to acne / pimples on skin. take care of dandruff and the pimples will go down .
use a medicated shampoo atleast once a week and wash hair with mild shampoo once in two days at least..
Next Steps
meet a dermatologist for dandruff and also rule out androgenic alopecia.
Health Tips
use a mild face wash in the night before sleep. wash hair in night instead of morning. skip applying oil if you are going out. keep the scalp clean.
