But it leaves scars all the time and it's becoming impossible for me to go out without make up on..covering my blemishes. I decided that I've had enuf and visited a dermatologist. She gave me a tablet azee 500 and also suggested clarisa soap.. glyco A cream... retino A 0.025 acne moist and eumosome.. I just want to know how long do I continue using these inorder to get my pimples cured permanently?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Acne can occur due to a number of causes like Oily skin, clogged pores, bacterial infection, inflammation, excessive sun exposure etc..
The medications advised are a combination of antibiotics, Retinoids,multivitamins and anti Acne or non comedogenic preparation..
The topical preparation advised to you are appropriate and can help in curing Acne..
But as it is a recurring condition it can get relapsed and you might need repetition of treatment..
I would suggest you to continue using the same treatment for atleast 3 months and also add Depigmentation agents like Kojic Acid, and arbutin containing creams..
Exfoliate your skin twice a week..
Do cool compresses over face..
You can also go for treatment like Microdermabrasion and chemical peeling..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
