HELLO SKI ,
Your skin is producing excess oil, and that oil is getting trapped in your pores especially on your face, around the mouth, cheeks, chin, and even on the scalp. When this builds up, it leads to blockages, whiteheads, and then pigmentation. The back and thigh acne shows that Pitta (heat) and Kapha (oil) are both high, and your skin is struggling to stay clean and balanced. Your pores are open because your skin is trying to “breathe,” but that also invites more dirt in. Pigmentation means your skin is inflamed underneath. Stretch marks this early mean we should support your dhatu strength (tissues) and hydration from inside.
But don’t worry — this can be treated beautifully with a consistent, cooling and detoxifying routine.
Treatment Plan 1. Internal Ayurvedic Medicines
Gandhak Rasayan – 1 tablet twice daily after meals Manjisthadi Kashayam – 15 ml with equal warm water before food Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water Sarivadyasava – 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner Shatavari Gulam – 1 tsp at night with warm milk (for stretch marks + hydration) 2. External Care (Face + Body)
Face wash: Green gram powder + a pinch of turmeric + rose water Scrub: Multani mitti + neem + sandalwood + lemon juice weekly 2 times Pigmentation paste: Kumkumadi taila + turmeric + licorice paste near mouth Body acne: Apply neem decoction or Triphala water on back and thighs 3x/week Stretch marks: Apply pure coconut oil + castor oil + a pinch of camphor every night
3. Diet and Lifestyle
Avoid oily, spicy, deep-fried foods, chocolates, bakery, and curd Drink 1 glass of warm jeera or coriander water daily Eat more of: moong dal, ash gourd, carrots, beetroot, boiled vegetables Avoid screen-time late at night — sleep by 10:30 PM Clean scalp with gentle herbal shampoo (reetha + amla-based)
Optional Investigations (if acne is severe)
Vitamin D, B12 Zinc level Fasting insulin Hormone profile (if periods are irregular or signs of PCOS) If you stay on this plan for 3–4 months, your pores will shrink, skin will clear, and pigmentation will reduce naturally. Skin healing is slow but consistent when you give your body the right tools.

DOSHA INVOLVEMENT
1) KAPHA DOSHA -heavy, oily, slow cold -excess kapha causes= oily skin, clogged pores, white heads(pus-filled pores), lymphatic stagnation(skin can’t detoxify)
2) PITTA DOSHA -hot, sharp, acidic -excess pitta causes= inflammation(red acne, pigmentation), skin sensitivity, tendency to scarring, hormonal breakouts
3) RAKTA DHATU DUSHTI(Impure blood) - acne, boils, pigmentation, and rashes are signs of impurities in blood
4) MEDA DHATU(fat tissue) -accumulation or weakness here can lead to stretch marks and poor skin elasticity
5) AGNI(digestive fire) IMBALANCE -poor digestion leads to ama(toxins) formation -> blocks skin channels(srotas)
LINE OF TREATMENT we will work on 5 level treatment
1) shodhana-internal cleansing 2) shamana- pacification with medications 3) ahara- correct diet 4) vihara- lifestyle 5) bahya chikitsa- external care

DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
For stubborn skin concerns like yours, it’s essential to look into the root cause from an Ayurvedic perspective. Often, such issues can be linked to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Kapha and Pitta, which can cause toxicity in the blood (rakta dhatu) and improper digestion or Agni.
First, focus on your diet, as it plays a crucial role. Incorporate foods that balance Kapha and Pitta. Reduce intake of very oily, spicy, or heavy foods. Favor bitter, astringent, and pungent tastes - vegetables like bitter gourd, leafy greens, and spices like turmeric and cumin can be helpful. Hydration is also pivotal; herbal tea like neem, holy basil, and turmeric may help detoxify your system.
For skincare, consider a natural cleansing routine. Use a paste of sandalwood powder mixed with rose water for your face. It soothes inflammation and helps with pigmentation. Apply gently, leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse. A facial steam with neem leaves once a week can help unclog pores naturally.
Externally for acne on back and thighs, a paste made of triphala powder and water can be applied twice a week. Leave for 15 minutes and wash off with lukewarm water; triphala balances all three doshas and helps detoxify.
Addressing pigmentation, you might try the application of fresh aloe vera gel mixed with a pinch of turmeric on the affected areas before going to bed.
Lifestyle changes can significantly impact skin health. Incorporate regular physical activity like yoga or walking to boost circulation and aid in detoxification. Ensure adequate sleep and manage stress with simple pranayama exercises.
Consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner in person to delve more into personalized treatment, especially for stretch marks which may be linked to rapid growth changes at your age. Topical application of oils like almond oil or a paste of ashwagandha powder with milk might be suggested, but tailored recommendations would ensure better efficacy.
