Acne for last 5 years
My age is 19. I'm suffering from Acne. At first it was only at face. But from last one year it's also spring to arm, forearm and back. Benzoyl peroxide is highly effective but it's not the permanent cure. And Azithral 500 effects like magic. But after 1 month acne reappears. I have a oily skin and my face sweats constantly. All hormonal reports are normal now. I have a past of liver disease ( recent), jaundice ( childhood), chicken pox ( childhood)

Acne can be treated easily with facewash, tablets and creams. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated. Please call me or send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.
