Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . Acne are very common problem in teens . They occur due to clogged pores of sebaceous glands . Dead skin and bacteria entrapped inside theses pores and cause pus formation and leads to acne formation.

I would suggest you to :-

- Wash your face with cold water and face wash containing salicylic acid (not fash foaming face wash) ,which is very effective for acne .

- Exfoliate your skin once a week to remove dead skin.

- protect your face from sun exposure as it can trigger the acne formation.

- Apply azelaic acid containing cream as this is safe for long term use because it is natural extract of cereals .

- Continue minoz 100 mg.

If condition doesn't start getting better in month then consult dermatologist . Doctor may prescribe antibiotic ( TERTACYCLINE OR DOXYCYCLINE) or drug ISOTERITENOIN which is also very effective .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
