Severe bacne scars.
Hello! I am suffering from severe back acne and scars for many years. They started about 5 -6 years ago, but I never paid much attention to it, thinking it will go away with time. But they didn't. Furthermore I got chicken pox after some time, that worsened my condition. Now they are a part of me, and worse than ever. They have always been a cause of embarrassment for me, even after consulting with the top dermatologists in my city ( Jabalpur, m.p.) I've got no improvements. I'm running out of hope now . Any help?

Hi..... Wash problem areas with a gentle cleanser. Twice a day, use your hands to wash your face with a mild soap and warm water....
Avoid certain products, such as facial scrubs, astringents and masks, because they tend to irritate skin, which can worsen acne. Excessive washing and scrubbing also can irritate skin.....
Avoid irritants. You may want to avoid oily or greasy cosmetics, sunscreens....Don't pick or squeeze blemishes. Doing so can cause infection or scarring.
Consult Dermatologist...
