Acne and acne scars

Dear Pankaj sir,
Thanks for replying to my post in the other thread.
I am a 27 year old male. My acne problem started 5 years ago when I came to the US. It wasn't very bad initially but in the last year and a half it has gotten really really bad. I got scarring from acne which wasn't bad at all until last year May. I still wanted to get rid of it so went ahead and started getting mild chemical peels. I had moderate acne at the time I started the chemical peels. But it got worse after 3-4 treatments. I can't tell if it got worse because of the peels or because of some other reason. I had to change my diet habits from Vegitarian to almost absolutely chicken based when I came to the States. I don't drink coffee, tea, alcohol and don't smoke. I hardly drink any soft drink either. But I was taking energy drinks last year before work outs ...which I guess probably messed up my case even more. Last year in September I broke out really bad and I switched to a very simple diet of steamed vegetables, soups and I quit chicken completely. I was on antibiotics for 3 months which I don't think helped me at all. I started taking multi vitamins in heavy doses to counter this problem. I took those vitamins for about 4-5 months along with strict diet and colon clear tablets. My BM s got better from before and now they are absolutely fine. I had trouble wth gas also last year when I broke out in September. My acne went away eventually and it took roughly 3-4 months. I lost weight because of poor diet so went back on my regular chicken diet along with protein shakes but didn't touch energy drinks this time. I was left with bad scars for which I was considering smoothbeam laser treatment and I got one done 2 months ago only in the cheek and nose area. My cheeks closer to nose are fine so don't think that smoothbeam did anything to trigger the breakout I am going through right now. I had started seeing tiny bumps(not inflammed) on my forhead and temple area about 2 months ago. They were not red and were the same color as skin. I started getting mild chemical peels again about a month ago and got two done in order to get rid of these bumps but I started breaking out not only on my face but on the back of neck (nothing new)...
My sugar consumption is very low and I don't have constipation problem. My skin is very oily though mostly in my nose and forehead area. I don't break out at all on my nose...my nose and chin are absolutely fine. I get acne on cheeks (away from nose), jaw line, below ears on the neck, forehead and back of the neck. I get acne on chest and shoulders also but they are not too bad but still I have lot of red marks from that on my shoulders and chest.
I am sorry for writing this long description but I am trying to give you as much information as possible without having you ask me questions over several emails.
I have had sleeping problems also which were mostly due to stress from job but that is over now. But I am having sleep problems still and it was worse in the last one month. My major worry right now is acne and I feel depressed because of this that it is not going away despite so many efforts. I have refrained from eating regular diet or choclates for a long time now but it keeps coming back and stronger from the last time.
Now I consulted a homeopath in India last week and she has sent me some Sulfur preparation which is still in post. I don't know what exactly is it at this time since I haven't received it but would like to check with you if you can tell based on the symptoms what would be the right medicine to go with. I sweat very easily even at 70oF and I feel hot at temperatures, normal for others. I weigh 130-135 pounds and am 5'7' tall. I am athletic and work out regularly.
I have bad scalp dandruff problem in India 5-6 years ago which went away after I got my hair cut. I can't think of any other thing that is relevant to my problem here. Please let me know if I have covered everything or if you need any more information.
Also I wanted to know if I could take homeopathic medication for two different ailments at the same time ..like for acne and hair loss. I have been prescribed Thuja 200 for the hairloss..which I haven't started yet ..that too is in the mail but from different source and not from the Homepath who is taking care of my acne problem. My hair density at the hair line and temples is very less may be from years of keeping them tied back since I had long hair...and also from flaky scalp because of excessive sweating.
I am sorry for tons of relevant and irrelavant information..but I want to help you diagnose the problem as best as possible. I hope this information is sufficient. Thank you so much!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Use a mixture of Berberis Aquifolium 3X (10 drops) and Kali Brom 30C (5 drops)....four times a day.
Take it for a month...

(in 1/8th glass of water each time).

You can expect a great deal of improvement.

Best,
Pankaj Varma

Thanks for the reply. I am new to homeopathy so I am not sure if I need to regulate other things such as diet according to the medicine I am taking or not. When exactly can I take these doses like how much time before and after the meals or at what time of the day would be the best and can I take both the meds at the same time.
Should I not start with the Sulfur preparation that I am going to get from India? Is Sulfur not the right thing for my case?
Also where can I get these meds from?
Thank you very much

I found the Berberis Aquifolium 3X here on this website but it is available in pellets. And Kali Bromatum 30C is also available in pellets. Does it have to be essentially in liquid form. How can I use the pellets to make the dose?
Thank you

sorry about the confusion about pellets. I found the dilutions here on this website. But I still need to know how to take the doses and why is Sulfur not the right thing in my case.
Thanks a lot!
