acne is due to oily skin and not dry you should use the products which keep skin dry not oily
application of dove make skin oily
no use of toxic and oily soaps shampoo creams ointments body application materials like face wash hena dyes etc
eat non oily non greesy and non fatty and non spicy foods
lot of warm water
if the acne increases take course of minocycline 50 mg od for 7 days
if you can stop milk and diary for 3 months
apply clindamycin gel bd
clamine od and tretinoic acid gel at night
switch light off after the gel application as it reacts with light
do for 3 months will be benefitted for all signs and symptomps
