Dear Aditi
Such obstinate type of acne call for internal medicine and in my practice I have seen topical application gves quick relief but there is frequent recurrance. In ayurveda we use blood purifiers and recommend proper hygeine and proper diet. Anti oxidants and cheerful mood make recovery fast. You can have tab. allerin haridra khand and maha manjishtha arisht for total cure.
