Can face fat be a cause for white pimples on face? How to reduce face fat?

Question

Hi. Your concern is very genuine. First of all you should avoid oily/junk food, don't do vigorous face scrubs, avoid comedogenic cosmetics, sunscreens and moisturizers. Acne is a chronic disorder and treatment needs to be continued for at least 6 months. You can consult dermatologist for oral retinoids after your routine investigations and other options like salicylic acid peels. Etc.

Dear user,

1. Keeping your face clean all the time is essential and so is consuming a lot of water, at least 3 litres everyday.

2. To avoid pimples, you can prepare a face pack at home: add 2 spoons (tsp) of sandalwood powder, 1 spoon of multani mitti and a pinch each of turmeric powder and neem powder to rose water and add 3-4 drops of lemon juice.

3. Allow the pack to dry and then wash is with plain water. If you are using a face wash use a mild one. Taking juicy fruits like apples and oranges and not drinking tea/coffee will help. Staying away completely from spicy or fried items and junk food is mandatory. Doing deep breathing exercise and pranayama for 15 minutes daily will also help.
