Hi dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Pimples are very common problem among teens because there are certain factors likr hormonal changes that trigger the formation on pimple ,sun exposure and stress become add on factors . So i would suggest you to to wash your face twice a day with face wash containing salicylic acid and cold water . After washing face apply cream containing azelaic acid twice a day . Azelaic acid is a natural extract that is very safe for use . If sunscreen cause pilple then simply cover your face while under sun exposure . Also apply vitamin E oil before going to bed . Add green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits to your diet .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
