Hi lybrate-user, Ayurveda can help you. Ayurveda has a singular approach to all forms of acne treatment as this problem appears due to imbalance of the three doshas ? vata, pitta and kapha. However, the main cause is the aggravation of the pitta dosha, an Ayurvedic humor that symbolizes heat or fire. Pitta dosha manifests in the skin and causes accumulation of heating toxins. These heating toxins accumulate in deep tissues like rasa (nutrient plasma), rakta, (blood), mamsa (muscles) and lasika (lymphatic). These toxins cause contamination of deeper tissues, leading to the condition of Yauvanpidika. Because acne is deep-rooted, use of local creams, antibiotics and lotions only masks the symptoms. Thus, specific Ayurvedic acne treatment is advised which includes right diet, lifestyle and some specialized herbal combinations that tackle the disease from its root cause. *Diet & lifestyles:- *Eat fresh, unprocessed food. *Increase the use of herbs that have cooling effects on the body like fennel, coriander seeds, Indian gooseberry (amla) and aloe vera. *Increase intake of water to about 8-10 glasses per day. *Wash your face frequently with mild herbal soaps. *Avoid irritant cosmetics. *Do not squeeze the acne lesions.
