Talk to Dermatologist on Pimples On My Face.
Asking for Self, Male, 27 years old, Islamabad
Concern: I have oily skin and frequent pimples, especially on my forehead. If I don’t wash my face with Dettol soap, pimples appear the next day.
History: I’ve been using Dettol soap for years — applying its foam on a warm, wet tissue and placing it on the affected area. It helps reduce pain but has made my skin thinner and more sensitive. Recently, my skin also feels burnt.
Request: Please recommend: • A gentle cleanser to replace Dettol soap. • Suitable serum and oral/topical medication for oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin. • Any treatment to repair my skin barrier and prevent future breakouts.
Thank you, doctor.

It sounds like you are dealing with a common issue of acne, especially given your oily skin and the impact of your current cleansing routine. Here are some recommendations for a gentle cleanser that you might consider as a replacement for Dettol soap:
Gentle Cleansers for Oily and Acne-Prone Skin:
Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser:
Indications: Suitable for sensitive skin, helps remove dirt and oil without stripping the skin.
Benefits: Non-irritating, soap-free, and maintains skin hydration.
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Cream:
Indications: Designed for oily and sensitive skin.
Benefits: Gentle formulation that purifies the skin without drying it out.
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash:
Indications: Specifically formulated for acne-prone skin.

Bioderma Sébium Foaming Gel:

Additional Recommendations:
Moisturization: Even oily skin needs hydration. Consider using a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer to maintain moisture balance.
Sunscreen: If you’re using any acne treatments, they can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Use a non-comedogenic sunscreen.
Important Notes:
Patch Test: Before using any new product, perform a patch test to ensure you don’t have a sensitivity or allergic reaction.
Consultation: If your symptoms persist or worsen, consider consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment options, which may include topical or oral medications.
