I have been suffering since 8years..I am 24 now but still suffering from acne problems especially on my jawline. Some are big lumps and small white heads on my cheeks and forehead as well. Is there any permanent remedy for acne? My skin is too oily. I was taking doxycycline caps and using femcinol A before. Please prescribe me some remedy to make my skin clear

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pimples can occur due to causes like Clogged pores,Oily skin,Hormonal Imbalances,Bacterial infection,Inflammation etc.
In your case oily skin seems to be a culprit..
You should consult a Dermatologist and get evaluated and he can advise you to wash your face with Salicylic acid containing facewash..
Apply topical ointment containing Clindamycin and Benzoyl Peroxide..
Apply retinoids like Adapelene gel in thin layer on pimples at night time..
Do cool compresses over face..
Exfoliate your face twice a week to unclog the pores and remove dead skin..
You can also apply a sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun..
Oral Medication like antibiotics like Clindamycin or Minocycline and retinoid like Isotretinoin can also be advised..
Retinoids will help in reducing acne as well as improves the skin and reduce oilyness..
Avoid oily food..
Wash your face multiple times a day to keep it clean and dry..
You should also avoid any emollient based skin creams and apply aloevera gel for lubrication..
You can also go for treatment like Microdermabrasion and chemical peeling..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
