How to get rid of acne that flares during nighttime?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

I went through your image (the attachments removed to protect the patient's identity).

Acne vulgaris is a common skin problem in adolescents and adults. It involves pilosebaceous follicles or oil glands and is seen to involve areas where oil glands are dense like the face, chest, back, and upper arms.

It seems you have grade 2 to grade 3 acne. So, I suggest you follow the instructions mentioned below.

1. Start using one percent Clindamycin (antibiotic) gel during the daytime over pimples and 0.1 percent Adapalene (retinoid) gel at night over the whole face (dark spots) for around two to three months.

2. Take a capsule of Doxy (Doxycycline) 100 mg once daily for one month.

3. Use a mild cleanser for face wash.

4. Avoid eating oily spicy foods, junk food, milk products, and nonvegetarian foods.

5. Drink lots of water to hydrate your skin.

Kindly consult a specialist, talk with them, and take medications with their consent.

Hope it helps.

Thank you.
