How can I clear pimples

Question

Hi. Your concern is very genuine. First of all you should avoid oily/junk food, don't do vigorous face scrubs, avoid comedogenic cosmetics, sunscreens and moisturizers. Acne is a chronic disorder and treatment needs to be continued for at least 6 months. You can consult dermatologist for oral retinoids after your routine investigations and other options like salicylic acid peels. Etc.

1. A balanced diet is very essential for maintaining healthy skin. 
2. Avoid excessive intake of junk and proprietary foods. Include fruits, raw vegetables and fresh vegetable juices in your diet. 
3. Avoid smoking and alcohol. Avoid very oily, spicy and sugary foods. Drinking good amount of water and fluids is a must to help flush out toxins from the body.
4. Drinking lemon water in the mornings can help clear the digestive system. Avoid crash diets or diets that call for avoiding any particular food groups totally. Sleep well and exercise regularly.
