Suggest Treatment For Acne Scars And Pimples
Hi
I am 26 years old. I started getting acne on both sides of the cheek and they are leaving marks also.
I had pretty clear skin since childhood and sudden appearance of these pimples is disturbing me a lot.
I am a vegetarian and dont eat much oily and spicy food.I also exercise and do yoga.
I use Olive oil to remove the makeup and apple cider vinegar as a toner.The pimples have been there for over a month now.
Please help.

Hi,
I can understand your concern for acne scars and pimples on face .
If I were your dermatologist then I would have suggested you to use azelaic acid cream or Kojic acid cream or glycolic acid cream or licorice extract or arbutine creams at night time in guidance of dermatologist.
The most important part is to use a sunscreen regularly in open environment and on exposure to sun.
Take a proper guidance and follow up with a good dermatologist so that all the problem can be dealt best for future time.
Protect yourself form direct sunlight.
Take care
