Acne can be because of oily skin or hormonal changes or some skin product you are using. Isotretinoin should only be used under guidance.

Whiteheads, 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.

Treatment of acne depends on the cause and grade of acne.
Do not self medicate specially with isotretinoin.
Consult online with pictures for proper treatment or visit a dermatologist.
