Dear patient , it's important to have a dual mode of action for such conditions . Aim should be to prevent new pimples from erupting and to dry the older ones simultaneously so that they don't leave any scar and dark spots . Though dark spots can be managed later on , it's very difficult to treat the scars because of acne and the worst part of acne is that most of them leave a scar or pigmentation when heal . Aim is to constrict the glands which is making the secretions on which bacteria find a good medium to multiply . Some patients also have acne on their arms shoulders and back and respond well to systemic treatment along with creams for local application. Lasers also can be done in severe cases and sometimes patient mostly female need some special drugs . So peels along with anti acne medication and oral tablets may help you out . It may take 4-6 weeks to get a proper control over them and according to the results we have to manage the drugs .
