Suggest Remedy To Get Rid Of Recurring Pimples And Marks
I am 27 and have occasional skin acne whenever I am nearing my menstural cycle and otherwise if I have too much coffee and chocolates. These pimples are usually with puss and leave a mark on my face. I have already been to a doctor in the past and she has given me antibotics and gels. I have been using Clindomycin gel. Please suggest me something to get rid of this recurring pimples and marks. Thanks

Hi dear ,
As per your query you are having recurring pimples and marks which occurs due to stress , oily skin , hormonal changes and excessive sun exposure . Mark which i left over after pimples occur due to post inflammation hyperpigmentation . I would suggest you to wash your face daily with cold water and face wash containing salycylic acid twice a day. You should apply cream containing azelac acid which is good for pimples as well as marks. Drink plenty of fluids. 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 marks .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
