How to reduce pimple from my face - #26286

Dhrati Dixit

Sometimes I get pimples on my face. They are not always the same — sometimes they appear red and swollen, sometimes they contain pus, and other times they show up as tiny, rash-like bumps or small whiteheads. These breakouts usually occur without warning and make my skin look irritated and uneven. I don't understand the exact reason behind it. It might be due to oily skin, hormonal changes, dust, or maybe some unhealthy eating habits. I wash my face regularly, but still, these pimples come back again and again. I want to know the real cause of these breakouts and what I can do to prevent them. Should I use a specific face wash or apply some creams? Are there any home remedies that actually work? Or do I need to consult a dermatologist for a proper skin treatment plan? My skin is not very sensitive, but I still want to avoid anything that might make the condition worse. I am looking for a safe, effective, and long-term solution to keep my face clean, clear, and pimple-free. Please suggest what steps I should take and what products or habits I should avoid to maintain healthy skin

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 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 TREATMENT GOALS 1)balance pitta and clears toxins, prevent blockage of skin pores 2)improve digestion- agni deepana 3)blood purification- rakta sodhana 4)regulate hormones 5)promote skin healing and scar reduction and reduce oil production TREATMENT PLANNED FOR YOU INTERNAL 1)GANDHAK RASAYANA- 1 tab twice daily after meals= 8-12 weeks continue 2)AROGYAVARDHINI VATI- 1 tab twice daily after meals= 12 weeks 3)NIMBADI GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily after meals= 8-12 weeks 4)MAHAMANJISTHADI KWATH- 20 ml+40 ml water twice daily before meals= 3+ months 5)SARIVADYASAVA- 15ml+equal water after meals twice daily= 2 months PANCHAKARMA ADVISED IF FEASIBLE -VIRECHANA(purgation) -RAKTAMOKSHAANA(leech therapy) -NASYA(nasal drops) EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS 1)CLEANSER(daily use) -Triphala decoction(cooled)- use as a gentle wash -Neem water- antibacterial -Herbal face wash with turmeric, aloe, neem 2)FACEPACKS(2-3 TIMES/WEEK) -multani mitti+ neem powder+ turmeric+ rose water= anti-acne, reduces oil, clears pores -Sandalwood powder+milk+manjistha powder= for pigmentation, cooling effect -Massor dal paste + milk or rose water= lightens acne scars apply for 15-20 minutes, wash off with cool water. 3)OILS FOR ACNE MARKS AND GLOW -KUMKUMADI TAILA- scar reduction, pigmentation lightening, glow -JATYADI TAILA(if active acne present)- anti-inflammatory, heals eruptions -NEEM OIL(DILUTED)- potent antibacterial apply thin layer before bed TEA TREE OIL= daily or alternative days =dilute with coconut oil and apply directly on pimples(spot treatment) MODERN SKINCARE SUGGESTIONS 1) FACE WASH= salicylic acid 2% based cleanser to unclog pores -use twicely, brands= minimalistic, neutropenia, cetaphil oily skin cleanser 2) MOISTURIZER= non-comedogenic , oil free -brands= neutropenia hydro boosts bioderma sebum 3) SUNSCREEN= always wear it, even if indoors -look for- gel based SPF 30-50 4) SPOT TREATMENT -Benzoyl peroxide (2.5%-5%)-kills bacteria -adapalene(0.1%)-helps prevent blocked pores(Retinoid) DIET:- EAT -BITTER AND ASTRINGENT TASTES- neem, bitter gourd, amla, bottle gourd -COOLING FOODS- coconut water, cucumber, coriander -FRUITS- amla, pomegranate, guava, apple -WHOLE GRAINS- red rice, barley, wheat(avoid polished rice) -WATER- warm water, triphala-soaked water(overnight infusion) -DETOX TEAS- cumin-fennel-coriander seed decoction AVOID -milk+salt, curd+fruits, banana+mmilk-> virrudha ahara(incompatible) -excess oily, fried, spicy, sour foods-pickles, chips -chocolates, ice creams, caffeinated and carbonated drinks -late night meals, irregular eating -smoking, alcohol, junk food LIFESTYLE GUIDELINES -wake up before 6 AM- aligns with brahma muhurta, boosts healing -Oil massage- 2 times/week with neem oil or coconut oil -Yoga- Suryanamaskar, sarvangasana, matsyasana, trikonasana etc -PRANAYAM- anulom vilom, sheetali, bhramari- cools pitta -Adequate sleep- 7-8 hours of undisturbed sleep crucial for skin regeneration -Face hygiene- don't touch face often, clean pillow covers weekly, avoid harsh scrubbing. -avoid tight or sweaty headwear that traps oil and sweat -clean your phone screen. regularly(bacteria buildup) MENTAL - EMOTIONAL -chronic skin disorders often correlate with repressed emotions, stress, or frustration -Daily 10 minute meditation, journaling, or mantra chanting helps reduce cortisol, which worsen acne.
