Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Hello,
Acne treatment takes time to respond. The results would be more evident after 2 months so religiously follow your medication and try to incorporate some anti acne habits to hasten the effect of your treatment
Next Steps
Consult me online via practo pro to know about a better approach to your acne without changing your medication
Health Tips
Anti- Acne Habits
- Cut on dairy products ( Trust me it works wonder)
- Avoid sugary stuff
- Drink lot of water for internal detoxification
- Always clean the area thoroughly before you apply your topical agents for better absorption and do not apply after moisturizer or any occlusive agent which you might be using as OTC product
- Relieve stress through yoga and meditation
Incorporate these habits because you are prone to acne and you will not get rid of it completely so life style modification is better options
Still if it doesn't work, then go for medical grade cleaning, chemical peels for acne or IPL for active acne.
