Thanks for explaining the problem in such depth.
Genetically your skin is prone to acne and is of oily type.
Apart from isotretinoin other very effective creams namely erytop (clindamycin phosphate gel), mometasone furate ointment are available too in the market commonly prescribed for acne.
So i suggest you could visit a good dermatologist and take alternate application creams or lotions. They help to a great extent.
along with the above follow the below guidelines religiously.
- keep your body hydrated. drink lots of water and fluids.
- avoid tea, coffee, pickles, junk foods, chaats and spicy food.
- Drink milk, eat sprouts and easily digestible home cooked food like roti-dal, khichadi, rice-dal, soups, lots of salads, fruits,
- At bedtime take 2 to 3 teaspoons of isabgul fibre.
- if possible drink fresh vegetable juice made of spinach, fenugreek, mint, amla or carrots or beetroot in the morning
- take omega 3 capsules and a good multivitamin daily
- most important is to thoroughly clense your face before bedtime.
