Hello,
Thank you for posting on HealthcareMagic.
I appreciate your concern regarding Acne.
Acne is caused chiefly due to hormonal influence and clogging of pores and followed by infection and inflammation.
It has tendency for recurrence and complications like pigmentation and scarring, thus mandates proper treatment at the earliest.
Since you should wide range of products I would suggest you to see a good
dermatologist who can guide you on clinic based procedural treatment as well as home-based treatment.
I advise procedures like chemical peeling and laser and
light therapy for patients having severe acne and associated complications like pigmentation and scarring.
For home-based treatment,I generally advise proper course of
oral antibiotics (Azithromycin etc) with or without oral
isotretinoin for few months. Additionally, I advise use of a cream containing clindamycin twice day and a gel containing
benzoyl peroxide and adapalene for few months.
Use good quality face wash and a moisturizer on regular basis.
Avoid junk food as far as possible and include plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
Hope this will take care of your condition.
Take care
