Respected doctor, I am 20 years old girl with sensitive acne prone skin. I used to face acnes on my face. My main concern is regarding red spots on my face. I have heard about azelaic acid cream and about vit c serum but afraid to try it on my face. Kindly share information about it. And if you can suggest me better tips for red spots. I will be thankful. Thank you :)

You can apply aloe vera juice/gel from its leaf (fresh), not from readymade gels available in market. Remove skin of an aloe vera leaf. Take /scoop out gel. Apply this gel to your face skin. Wash with plain water after an hour. Stop using soap on face. Instead take a spoon of milk, add a pinch of turmeric (haldi). Mix n apply on face with the help of cotton. Leave for a few minutes then wash off. Apply moisturizer like coconut oil. Simple honey mask--before applying this mask, rinse your face with warm water to open up pores. Then apply honey and leave it on the skin for 30 minutes. Rinse the honey off with warm water; then rinse again with cold water to close the pores. Use some sunblock with spf (at least 50) every time you go out in sun. Apply it 30 mins before going out use umbrella when going in sun. Wear full sleeves clothsdrink plenty of fluids. Don?t be stressed. For more details consult online.

Hello dear. Acne is multifactorial and needs proper evaluation and treatment just applying azelaic acid or vitamin c is not going to be helpful. Schedule an online consultation for further assistance.
