Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query acne problem since 8-9 years which occurs when sebum get accumulated along with dead skin and bacteria in clogged pore of sebaceous gland. Exfoliate your skin one a week to remove the dead skin from your face. Apply betnovate on acne twice a day for 2-3 days. If condition doesn't start getting better in a week then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may prescribe oral antibiotic course clindamycin or isoteritenoin. Apply kojic acid containing cream ( kojivit ) after washing face twice a days. Wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice daily.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
