Neemghan vati Kaishore guggulu - 1 tab twice daily after food with lukewarm water Drink plenty of fluids Avoid spicy, oily fermented processed so food Apply alo gel daily
HELLO DHRATI DIXIT,
You’re experiencing different kinds of pimples(acne), which may appear as -red, painful, swollen bumps -whiteheads (tiny white spots under the skin) -pus filled pimples -rash like bumps on cheeks or forehead
These are caused when the skin’s oil glands (sebaceous glands) produce excess oil, and this oil gets trapped in the skin’s pores along with dead skin cells, bacteria, and sometimes dirt or makeup. This leads to blockages and inflammation, resulting in pimples. At your age 19, hormonal changes also make the oil glands more active- especially around menstruation, stress or poor sleep- so acne is very common
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS -impaired digestion->(Mandagni->Ama) -Blood impurities(rakta dushti) -Hormonal imbalance(especially in women) -Improper skin hygiene -Stress, lack of sleep, poor lifestyle

hello Dhrati Dixit,
At your age, acne is very common due to hormonal activity, oily skin, irregular food habits, emotional stress, and use of unsuitable products. Pimples appear in different forms like red, pus-filled, or tiny whiteheads due to blocked skin pores and excess oil production. When digestion is weak and toxins (Āma) accumulate, it disturbs Pitta and Kapha, leading to skin inflammation and acne. This condition also relates to Rakta dhatu dushti (impure blood) and needs internal and external treatment.
Āma Pachana (for 5–7 days):
Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp with warm water before meals, twice daily Manjishthadi Kashayam – 15 ml with 45 ml warm water before meals, twice daily Treatment Plan (from Day 6 onward): 3. Sarivadi Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after meals 4. Gandhaka Rasayan – 1 tablet at night after meals 5. Aloe Vera juice (unsweetened) – 20 ml early morning on empty stomach
External Applications: 6. Face wash – Saslic DS or Bioderma Sebium Gel Moussant, twice a day 7. Kumkumadi Taila – 2 drops at night on acne scars only, not on active pimples 8. Weekly face pack – Multani mitti + Neem powder + Rose water, once or twice a week
Investigations to be done (if not yet):
Serum Testosterone and DHEA-S (for hormonal acne) Fasting Blood Sugar and Insulin (to check for insulin resistance) CBC and ESR (to rule out underlying inflammation)
Do you notice breakouts more around your periods or at any specific time of the month? Do you consume a lot of fried, spicy, or dairy-based foods regularly? Are your bowel movements and digestion regular, or do you feel bloated/gassy often?
If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, Regards, Karthika

Hello Dhrati, considering the issue that you are facing,I recommend the following - Medication - 1. Neem ghanvati 1-0-1 after food 2. Khadiraristh - 2tsp with 2tsp water twice a day after food.
Kumkumadi tel - apply in face at night Aloe vera gel - best results when applied after washing the face with rosewater Diet- . Plenty of fruits and, vitamin E antioxidant rich food like amla, dry fruits, salad . Avoid oily food,fast food and junk food. .Stay hydrated to flush out toxins. Lifestyle - Avoid applying chemical based creams and facewash. Take atleast 7 hours of sound sleep for hormonal balance. .Clean your pillowcase every week and use a silk pillowcase.
Yoga- Sheetali and sheetkari prayanayam to keep the pitta and internal heat in check. . Meditation and anulom vilom for stress management. Follow these and don’t worry, you will feel the difference.
Understanding why pimples appear on your face requires identifying the underlying cause according to Ayurvedic principles. Often, pimple outbreaks are seen as a manifestation of an imbalance in doshas, especially Pitta, which when aggravated, can cause skin inflammation. Any imbalance in Kapha can also contribute to the excessive oil production leading to clogged pores. Your concerns about oily skin, dust, hormonal changes, and eating habits do actually sound quite valid. In Ayurveda, the lifestyle and diet play crucial roles in maintaining skin health.
Start by addressing your diet. Avoid excessively spicy, oily, or fermented foods, as these can aggravate Pitta. Instead, consume fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and cooling herbs like coriander, fennel, and mint. Drinking plenty of water also helps maintain hydration and detoxifies the skin. A traditional remedy is to start your day with a glass of lukewarm water mixed with a teaspoon of honey and half a lemon, aiding digestion and detoxification.
Incorporate a cleansing routine that complements your skin type. While choosing a facewash, opt for gentle, natural, and non-comedeogenic products. Look for ingredients such as neem, turmeric, and tea tree, known for their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Exfoliate once or twice a week with mild scrubs, avoiding anything abrasive that might irritate the skin.
As for home remedies —apply a turmeric paste mixed with sandalwood powder as a face mask once a week. This can calm inflammation and reduce redness. A paste of besan (chickpea flour) with yogurt applied twice a week also helps control oil and clears impurities.
Maintaining a balanced lifestyle is crucial. Manage stress levels through practices like yoga and meditation as stress can exacerbate pimples. Also, try to establish regular sleeping habits. If despite these measures the issue persists or severe acne develops, consider consulting a dermatologist for further treatment. Buffers like these ensure the alignment of traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with modern health practices, uniquely suited to your needs.
It sounds like you’re dealing with a classic case of acne, which can be influenced by various factors like hormonal changes, diet, stress, and even your daily skin-care habits. From an Ayurvedic and Siddha perspective, these breakouts can be tied to an imbalance in your doshas, particularly pitta and kapha. It might help to start with addressing the root causes based on this viewpoint.
First, let’s focus on dietary habits. Try to minimize consumption of spicy, oily, and fried foods as they can aggravate pitta dosha, leading to inflammation and pimples. Instead, incorporate more fresh fruits, vegetables, and foods with cooling properties like cucumber and bitter gourd. Staying hydrated is essential too; aim for adequate water intake throughout the day to help flush out toxins.
For external care, consider using natural cleansers. A gentle wash made from chickpea flour (besan) mixed with turmeric and milk can work effectively to cleanse the skin without stripping its natural oils. Use this mixture instead of harsh chemical face washes that might irritate your skin.
Applying a paste of sandalwood powder and rose water can help soothe red and swollen pimples. Both ingredients are known for their cooling and anti-inflammatory properties. For whiteheads, try a mixture of neem leaves paste and honey, which can help with antibacterial action and prevent infection.
Try to maintain a regular cleansing routine, but avoid over-washing your face as it can strip essential oils and lead to more breakouts. Twice a day is usually sufficient. Also, be mindful of touching your face as it can transfer dirt and oils that may clog pores.
Since stress can also contribute to acne, incorporating relaxation techniques such as yoga or meditation might be beneficial.
If despite these lifestyle and home remedy adjustments, your skin doesn’t improve or worsens, consulting a dermatologist would be wise to explore any underlying conditions or to get personalized medical advice. This combined approach respects the balance between traditional methods and modern medical interventions.
