Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

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

As per your complain pimples does not occur by working on laptop although there is a possibility that you might get an increase in weight due to sedantary lifestyle and it can cause hormonal imbalance and it is a cause for pimples..
I would suggest you to consult a Dermatologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done..
You can be advised to apply cindamycin and benzoyl peroxide gels..
Apply Adapelene gel over the pimples at night..
Wash your face with Salicylic acid containing facewash.
You can also do cool compresses over the pimples..
Exfoliate your skin twice a week..
You can also avoid oily food and take more of green leafy vegetables and fruits in diet..
You can also be advised oral antibiotics and retinoids.

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
