Hi! I am suffering from acne for the past two months. I guess it would be because of dandruff. And I find my skin becoming oily within an hour after face wash. It is also hot summer here. please suggest me how can I treat and prevent myself from acne.
Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic. Wash your face with a pH balanced face wash, preferably with one containing 1-2% salicylic acid. You may apply a gel containing clindamycin 1% in the morning over pimples and Benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel at night over pimple prone areas. Avoid creams on your face. Avoid oil on your scalp. Diet is important. Avoid milk and milk products like cheese, chocolates, sweets, sugary foods and drinks. Eat a lot of fruits rich in vitamin A (anything with lot of color) Hope this helps you. Take care.
