I've been struggling with frequent pimples for quite some time now. I started using Lobate GM about four years ago, but the pimples just keep coming back, especially if I try to switch my face wash. Lately, it's been really bad, mostly on my forehead, and I'm not sure what to do. I'm currently in Chennai working for an MNC, and it's becoming pretty frustrating to manage. Can you suggest a complete solution for this ongoing issue? It would be great if you could also recommend any ointments that might suit my skin type.

To address your persistent pimple issue, consider consulting a dermatologist in Chennai for personalized guidance; in the meantime, maintain a consistent skincare routine, use non-comedogenic products, and avoid changing face washes frequently; regarding Lobate GM cream, it contains neomycin and clotrimazole, which may not be suitable for long-term use, so consider alternative treatments like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or tea tree oil-based products, and for specific product recommendations, consult your dermatologist, who can prescribe suitable ointments or creams based on your skin type and condition.
