And remember there’s no any relation of foods with acne,it’s just hormonal changes so don’t worry this phase will go away.

Yes u can try oral Isotretinoin but u need to consult a dermatologists for your skin examination, assess severity of acne, take detailed history, add topical treatment, suggest dosage and duration of treatment and follow up for few months to see how u tolerate the medicine. I would not suggest self medication. U can consult https://www.marham.pk/online-consultation/dermatologist/gujranwala/dr-asma-idrees-42886
it's completely treatable after taking some medicine don't you worry detailed history required kindly book appointment with me it's a permanent solution
