Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. as per your query you have acne and black spots on the face which occurs when pores of oil gland get clogged and there is entrapment of dead skin and bacteria. Other factors such as stress , hormone changes and exposure to sun are exaggerated factors. I would suggest you to wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day and consult your dermatologist if condition doesn't get better for proper examination. You can start with oral antibiotics or oral retinods after proper prescription. Avoid exposure to sunlight. Use medicated sun screen such as TANCARE rich in Spf 26. Apply creams containing kojic acid , benzoyl peroxide and tretinoin for long use. Drink plenty of water.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
