It is small acne but its spreading and i do have acnes all over my head scalp too . i consulted a dermatologist here but they told it may be because of the choclate intake or fat inside so i stopped eating choclates and fat intake but still it continues . I am living in UAE . I am using mild facewash and face toner and then morning applying moisturiser in small amount and that too organic one and evening after applying toner am using triacneal cream ( AVENE) . before i was not having dandruff issue but now i do have that too . I am applying anti dandruff oil once in a week and using organic shampoo everyday since i dont feel comfort since it smells bad due to the acne breakout . please help me asap .

Skin care needs to be customized based on the presenting complaints. There are different ways to achieve a flawless skin after acne and it needs medical interventions and commitment on part of the patient. Acne treatment has multiple stages - to control new breakouts, to clear the sequelae (pigmentation and scars) and to prevent a relapse. An attempt to find out the root cause of acne should be made in every patient or else it keeps recurring. Each phase takes a couple of weeks before we move to the next phase of treatment. If you have active acne lesions, it should be controlled on priority basis. Acne scar and pores can be treated with subcisions, dermaroller, fractional CO2 lasers, chemical peels and likewise. Remember combining treatment modalities help to achieve desired results earlier. Your dermatologist will decide a treatment plan for you after a consultation. Apart from active pharmaceutical medicines, a healthy diet and lifestyle is mandatory to achieve results.
