A 21-year-old girl from district Badwani presented with one of the severe most form of acne over her entire face and neck. She had taken treatment from our clinic one year back for her acne and got completely cured. She was all right since then, but recently started to get this very severe eruption on her face and neck. She could recognize that current condition is different from her previous  acne, but could not precisely tell the difference. She tried several home remedies but it didn’t respond. To make the matter worse is the fact that, there was her marriage in upcoming months.

When she came for her examination it was instantly noticeable that this is an adverse effect of topical steroids. A friend has recommended her to apply a very potent steroid cream over her face. Being in search of a easy and magical potion for fairness and flawless skin, she fell for it. She kept on applying the cream for months, which resulted in this horrible predicament. Her entire family was disturbed because of the condition of her face and were worried about her marriage.

First of all, we counseled her to stop that cream immediately and to never apply it again. We gave her a detail insight into her problem as well as informed about the expected outcome.

We planned a six week long therapy for her, and could achieve excellent responses before her marriage.
