Hello.
Thank you for contacting HCM.

You appear to be suffering from severe acne. It can occur due to many reasons, most common of it being hormonal imbalance. It can be managed effectively if treated properly. If i were your treating physician I would recommend
1. Clindamycin phosphate gel to be applied twice daily.
2. daily use of sun screens.
3. use of medicated soaps designed especially for acne.
4. vitamin C creams to reduce the scarring.

If the acne is severe you may have to take a course of antibiotics and vitamin A creams and capsules....for that i would recommend consulting your local dermatologist as the dose of these medicines need to be strictly monitored.

I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concerns.
Wishing you good health.
