Suggest Treatment For Small Pimples On The Cheeks And Forehead

Hello doctors. Please i need a cure for my pimples and i have them since age of 13. Now am 27. I always break out on my cheeks and forehead. I have an oily skin and a sensitive one. Any product that i have used only cause more break out. Worst is when i use products with salicylic acid. Some of the products i have used are; permanganate, acne out, differin ( it worked for some months and then became resistant, proactive 3 in one, clearasil , oxy 10 and many more. Forgot to mention am a nigerian. And i have asthma history in my family so i get tiny allergic rashes on my face that itches wen i use harsh product. Please i need help. Can i ever have that smooth face that i wished for?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of small pimples on cheek and forehead which is due to clogged pores of skin with dead skin, stress, hormonal disturbances and due to underlying systemic conditions. I would suggest you to avoid taking spicy and fried substances. You should drink plenty of water. Wash face with clindamycin gel. Avoid use of any steroids on face. Apply cream rich in kojic acid. Apply aloe vera gel on face. Drink green tea daily it will purify skin and detoxify it. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined. You can go for microabrasion and chemical peeling.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
