Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pimples and scars on face which is mainly because of the fact that pores of your skin become clogged and hyper-pigmentation of skin and excessive exposure to sunlight and hyperactive sebaceous glands which produce excessive sebum is another cause for this. As you already taking so much medication and not getting benefitted. I would suggest you to start with topical application of Saslic DS which is face wash you should use regularly and gel containing clindamycin in the morning and benzoyl peroxide at night time. You should visit dermatologist once and get yourself examined. Apply mashed potatoes on these scars .Don't use any cosmetics containing much chemicals. Avoid use of topical steroids. Recent methods are used for scar removal such as Chemical peeling, dermabrasion, Dermaroller. You can go ahead with these as well with proper prescription. Drink plenty of water. Use medicated sunscreen such as Tancare rich in SPF 30.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
