Sudden acne
Hi I am 32 year female,last year march, I developed acne suddenly over my face and neck, I am guessing that happened because I started having honey and lime in hot water first thing in morning. I stopped that since I used to feel a bit acidic. I took a treatment for about a week for the acne from a dermatologist. However , they have not been completely cured. I would want to have the same clear skin like I had before. I also want to mention that currently I have a very stressful life and also only able to sleep 6.5 hours sleep. I am usually tired and low on energy. I am also running low BP. Just would like to know if should just re initiate my acne treatment given by dermatologist or could it be something else.

Skin care needs to be customized based on the presenting complaints. There are different ways to achieve a flawless skin after acne and it needs medical interventions and commitment on part of the patient. Acne treatment has multiple stages - to control new breakouts, to clear the sequelae (pigmentation and scars) and to prevent a relapse. An attempt to find out the root cause of acne should be made in every patient or else it keeps recurring. Each phase takes a couple of weeks before we move to the next phase of treatment. If you have active acne lesions, it should be controlled on priority basis. Acne scar and pores can be treated with subcisions, dermaroller, fractional CO2 lasers, chemical peels and likewise. Remember combining treatment modalities help to achieve desired results earlier. Your dermatologist will decide a treatment plan for you after a consultation.
