Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having acne on face that too severe acne and clogged pores, dehydration, stress , oily skin , hormonal changes and excessive sun exposure are all responsible for this. You should avoid using cosmetic products containing much chemicals till the time your symptoms would not resolve. I would suggest you to wash your face daily with cold water and face wash containing salycylic acid twice a day. Apply aloe vera gel at night . If condition doesn't get well in a week then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like minocyclin , steroid ointment and may recommend chemical peeling for acne.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
