Suggest Treatment For Acne Break Out On The Face

Hi, I am from India and I got many dark spots on my face due to acne and pimples which were high in figure till last four years but after they have gone. But their marks and dark spots are still there. Mostly on my side face between ear and eye. Please suggest me any cream or lotion or any other to reduce the dark spot.
Thanks

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain dark or black spots left on face seems to be due to Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation that occurs due to pimples..
You should consult a Dermatologist and get evaluated and he can advise you to wash your face with Salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewash..
For dark spots apply creams containing Kojic acid, glycolic acid and arbutin..
Vitamin E gel can be applied at night.
Creams containing Grapeseed extract, licorice extract are also helpful..
Azelic acid preparations are helpful..
You can exfoliate your skin twice a week with a gentle scrub.
Take Vitamin C supplements..
You can also go for treatment like Microdermabrasion and chemical peeling..
You can also apply a sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
