Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.


Thanks for your query . The oily and tanned skin can be manage easily if we use right products with right method. There are many reasons for oily skin like , but two most common are hereditary or hormonal changes .

I would suggest you to clean your skin twice daily with mild soap ,because hard soap trigger oil production using face wash containing benzoyl peroxide will be best, exfoliate your skin once a week with product containing salicylic acid for oily skin and use cream containing koijic acid at night for tanned skin .

Also protect your skin from sun to prvent further worsening of condition with oil free product like pressed powder with SPF 15. Apply turmeric powder mix with honey fro 10 - 15 minutes and then wash it daily.

If condition doesn't get improved in 1 month then consult dermatologist for proper evaluation of condition and treatment . Doctor may recommend procedure like chemical peeling and microdermabrassion.


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
