Suggest Permanent Solution For Acne
I first got acne when I was 14. The seriousness of my acne sways in and out, sometimes I have none and others, my face is completely covered. It's really starting to have an effect on my self esteem. Recently I have visited multiple acne websites and tried many products, but I have no idea which websites to believe. So, I figured I would see what the profeesionals think, could you help me find an acne treatment that gets rid of my acne forever and fast?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you want permanent solution for acne which is very common problem in teens. Basically main reason of acne is sebaceous gland under the hair follicle , when sebum get accumulated in clogged duct of sebaceous gland along with dead skin and bacteria they produce acne. You can go for home remedy as well. Apply mashed potatoes. I would suggest you to Wash you face 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil ,dust and bacteria on your face. Apply vitamin E oil at night. . Don't pick or touch acne. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables ,also drink plenty of water. If acne still persists consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe ointments containing benzyol peroxide,azelaic acid or retinoids. Sometimes doctor may also prescribe antibiotics.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
