Hi, thanks for your query.
I understand your concern for
acne and
scars. The main cause of acne is over production of oil(sebum) by the sebaceous glands due to stimulation by
androgens which are formed in excess due to
hormonal imbalances. So they can occur at your age due to hormonal changes. Unfortunately there is no permanent solution for acne or scars nor there is any immediate solution. With treatment acne can be controlled and scars can be reduced.
The treatment you have been taking for acne is apt but if you still have new eruptions you may need oral medication in the form of
Azithromycin or doxycyclin or
isotretinoin. You may consult your
dermatologist for the appropriate medicine in your case.
You may follow these general measures:
-Don't prick or squeeze the lesions. Doing so may lead to scar formation.
-Get your black heads and white heads extracted regularly.
-Use a salicylic face wash.
-You may get a few sessions of salicylic or glycolic peels.
-Use a non comedogenic sunscreen during the day.
Once there are no new acne lesions, then you may start scar reduction treatment in the form of
dermaroller or fractional
laser by consulting your doctor.
Hope this solves your query.
