Hi Simran,
Treatment options would depend on whether you have menstrual problems or not. If there is menstrual irregularity then an underlying hormonal problem called PCOD may be present and the acne improves as soon as this is treated. If the menstrual cycle is fine then a trigger needs to be looked for as to why you have suddenly started having pimples now. Common triggers are pollution, make-up use, dietary factors, incorrect facials among other things. You need to see a Dermatologist in person to identify and address these factors and then begin treatment. Till then I would just suggest a Benzoyl Peroxide face wash like Brevoxyl Creamy Face Wash used twice a day.
