Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query and understand your concern.

I will help you with your problem. You are having acne vulgaris which is the most common skin condition of your age. Generally, the eruptions on healing leave a mild dark spot. If the eruptions are manipulated by picking them or squeezing them, they leave darker spots on healing.

In your case, if you have oily skin, you should use Ahaglow S facewash four to five times a day. This will prevent oily skin which is one of the main causes of acne. For the treatment of the eruptions, you should use Deriva CMS gel on the eruptions at night daily. Also take tablet Azithromycin 500 mg three days a week for 1 month (3 days daily dose, then 4 days gap, then repeat). The dark spots, if persist after the course of treatment, can be treated with other creams then.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.
