Asking for Self, Female, 23 years old, Jacobabad
From last months I have this strange type of acne. It leaves scars but not all of the time. I was in university but due to lockdown I am at home so least exposed to dirt. I use johnson’s face wash. Don’t use much makeup or any creams. Now some day acne is gone and sometimes it’s alot. It is so strange that on some days my face is clean in morning. Not completely but a lot better and sometimes these little pimples are all around. Also I quickly get black heads. Let me know if you need to know anything about my skin to suggest me something. I want to know the causes, and how to take care of it rather than any medication
Stop doing remedies and pls take an appointment for proper treatment

The facial here are from heredity so actually it’s from my birth. Don’t consider that

I can’t do it for now. So is there anything I should take care of from my side until that?

Ok you do have grade II acne but you also have hair growth on your face. I am sure you are losing scalp hair and maybe slightly chubby. I am suspecting that u have some hormone problem in r blood that is causing this.
I would like to examine you in my clinic in Karachi after the lockdown has eased a bit. Meanwhile I want you to do the blood test 14- days "Before" your period starts from AKUH lab. It Serum Testosterone.

Ok doctor, so until that I should do nothing right? Facial hair are from my birth so no worries with that.

Whenever your face becomes oily just use the face wash. At the moment I cannot prescribe you any medication, but if you tell me which ones you have at home, I might be able to suggest which ones to apply.
Secondly make a list of foods that might be eating and getting acne the next morning. Thirdly, stress is responsible for bringing out more pimples quickly.

Thanku so much Sir. One more thing, any food which can help in acne scars reduction?
