You have two problems acne and acne marks. For clearing acne marks first you need to get rid of acne. After clearance of acne you can clear acne marks by Lomela cream.
Advice
1. Apply locally Clindoxyl gel (clindamycin + benzyl peroxide) at bed time for a month
2. Doxycycline 50 mg daily per oral for 30 days. If you are pregnant then do not use doxycycline
3. Use Acne aid soap three time daily for cleaning your face
4. Do not squeeze pimples as it will cause scarring
5. Keep pimples untouched
6. Try to avoid use of unbranded cosmetics unnecessarily
7. Avoid mental stress as it aggravates acne
After total clearance of acne, you can apply Lomela cream at bed time in your face for one month. Do not rub while applying and apply a very thin layer (small amount). Do not use Lomela on cut mark.
Lomela cream makes you skin sensitive to sunlight. So use Spectraban sensitive sunscreen cream before exposure to sunlight. You can use other over the counter sunscreen available in the market.
Thanks
