What is the best solution for oily skin and large pores?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and have seen your photographs (attachment removed to protect patient identity). What I have seen is a blackish pigmentation over your forehead and around your eye, along with ice pick, rolling, and pockmarked scars over your cheeks. The blackish pigmentation is termed periorbital hypermelanosis. The main culprits are stress factors, including lack of sleep, overt sun exposure, etc.

1. Start with depigmenting creams like Kojic acid (Kojivit) or Hydroquinone (HHlite) over the black areas at night for two weeks along with sunscreen (Suncross UVA or Suncross Aquagel or Photostable cream).

2. Sunscreen should be applied compulsorily in the morning time within a span of 2-3 hours, like 8:00 AM, 11:00 AM, and 2:00 PM all over the face.

3. For the scars, a procedure called derma roller or microdermabrasion can be done by any skin doctor in your area because those scars will not come down with oral or topical medications.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Once you get Kojivit, you can apply for the black marks and darkness around your eyes along with sunscreen which is a must. Stop applying lemon juice and Lacto Calamine. Lacto Calamine lotion will clog the pores and will produce pimples. Suncross Aquagel usually will not produce pimples because it is a gel and easily dries on the skin once it is applied.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
