Pimple and acne marks
I have acne pimple since last 9 years.
I consulted a doctor..they gave me one salicylic acid face wash and one fungal cream which didn't work much on my skin.
I still get acne sometimes when I am close to my period dates . But I want that to completely cure and also remove all old acne marks .. what should I do. My skin type is oily.. and also I have oily scalp which leads to dandruff very often..
