Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe acne on face which could be due to environmental change, weather change, hormonal imbalance, stress and clogging of skin pores. I would suggest you to wash your face with face-wash containing salicylic acid , exfoliate your skin once a week , apply raw honey on acne for 15 minutes daily and then wash. You can apply adapelene gel as well at night. Ointments containing benzyol peroxide,azelaic acid or retinoids will be beneficial for you. Drink plenty of water and eat fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. You should avoid oily and sharp food. Visit dermatologist once if symptoms keeps on persisting and get proper prescription and start treatment.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
