Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . Treatment of acne is very easy if follow right direction and medicines .

Acne basically formed due to clogged pores of sebaceous glands , dead skin , sebum and bacteria get entraped in it . Bacteria cause infection and from fluid filled acne .

I would suggest you to use product containing benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid for acne or cream containing isoteritenoin.

For acne marks aloe vera is very effective natural product also use azelaic acid cream .

For treatment of dandruff use candid TV shampoo twice a week . apply it on moist scalp and leave it for 10 minutes then wash away .

If condition persist for more then a month then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course for acne and procedure like microneedling (collagen induce therapy) or chemical peeling for acne marks.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
