Re: acne query:(

hi, i am new on the forum too...you can try hydroquinone in 2% which is over the counter or if you want to try a home remedy put a little bit of apple cider vinegar with a litte bit of water on the marks...

Re: acne query:(

the marks go off by itself in some time.just scrub once/twice in a week:hmmm:
haldi works on my face:phati: i was having the breakout too and haldi mixed with yogurt worked in making them go away quick.

Re: acne query:(

Try multani mitti mixed with sandalwood powder and rose water. Working wonders on my skin. And drink lots of water and fruit juices.

Re: acne query:(

Do wuddu 5 times a day, eat less, specially less oily food. Do it for at least 2 months and then visit doctor shabbo again!

^Niklo yahan se!

Please don't use HQ without consulting a derm.. please toss-out those meds they're harsh and contain steroids.

If u go thru the Glowing Brides thread you'll find lots of information on acne and acne scars.

ahan! thnx alot everybody :D i used to have such a clear skin after i turned 16 but now all of a sudden the breakout occurred. i totally hate the scars. and i will definitely try things. :) thnx alot for helping out.
@GINA
yea i agree with you. the steriods really dont do you any good at all. even if they do it lasts hardly for a week. and then you are back to where you started with plus this time around with a lot more pimples :D
