Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe acne on face since 5 to 6 years which is mainly due to clogging of skin pores. It could be due to postinflammatory hyper-pigmentation. You can apply lacticare lotion once daily at night time. I would suggest you to avoid exposure to oily, greasy and sharp food substances. Drink plenty of water. Don't use ant cosmetics and hard substances on face. Apply vitamin E oil at night. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and go for micro-peeling and dermabrasion. You can apply aloe vera gel on them as well. Apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil and apply them on scars. Wash your skin 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil ,dust and bacteria on your skin.Take diet rich in vitamin E.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
