hello fathima maheen ,
I hear you. Pimples with repeated scars and dark spots around the eyes usually happen due to a mix of Pitta imbalance (inflammation, acne), Vata imbalance (dark circles, dryness), and Rakta dhatu dushti (impurity in blood). Stress, irregular sleep, and indigestion also worsen it.
Let me give you a clear step-wise guide that works from inside and outside.
Step 1: Correct digestion & purify blood (first line) Manjisthadi kashayam – 15 ml with equal water, twice daily before food (blood purifier, reduces acne & marks). Sariva syrup 10 ml with water, twice daily after food (cooling, skin-friendly). Sip warm water with a pinch of coriander seeds boiled in it once daily (soothes Pitta).
Step 2: Internal support for skin healing Arogyavardhini vati 1 tab twice daily after food (balances liver, clears skin). Gandhak Rasayan 2 tabs daily (purifies skin, helps scars fade). Include soaked black raisins, pomegranate, carrot, beetroot, and ghee in diet for skin glow. Step 3: External care Kumkumadi tailam – apply 2–3 drops at night after gentle face wash, massage lightly.
Weekly face pack: Multani mitti + sandalwood powder + rose water (keeps oil in balance & fades scars).
For dark circles: Apply aloe vera gel or almond oil under eyes at bedtime. Cold milk dipped cotton pad on eyes for 5 min daily.
Step 4: Lifestyle Sleep before 11 pm (dark circles reduce mainly with proper rest). Reduce spicy, fried, oily, and excess dairy (triggers pimples). Manage stress: 10 minutes daily pranayama or deep breathing. Drink enough water but avoid chilled/cold drinks.
Investigations (if acne & dark spots persist) CBC, Hb (low hemoglobin worsens dark circles). Vitamin D3 & B12. Thyroid profile.
At 24, your skin can fully recover. Scars and dark spots will fade gradually when digestion is corrected, blood is purified, and sleep improves. With consistent internal and external care, you will notice clear improvement within 6–8 weeks.
Warm regards, Dr. Karthika
