Natural Treatment for Pimples

Pimples on the face and above the back or chest can be due to various reasons like hormonal changes, heredity, age, skin type and even dandruff. First thing to do is identify the cause and then treat that cause to treat pimples. If you have dandruff which tends to fall on your cheek bone then try to deal with dandruff first till then you can wear closed neck clothes.


This will help in 2 ways – avoid exposure of sun and dirt which can accumulate and lead to pimples and rule out the possibility of dandruff falling there. Besides try the following simple home remedies to get rid of the pimples over your cheek bone:

  • Rub sandal wood stick on a wooden board with rose water to get a thick paste and apply this on the affected areas. Sandal wood is very effective in the treatment of pimples.



  • Apply aloe vera cream or fresh aloe vera extract on these pimples for a quick and effective fix.
  • Keep the area and face clean and oil free as far as possible. Apply calamine lotion when you step out as it will protect the skin with pimples.
  • Grind dry orange peels and mix it with water to make a paste and apply on the affected area.
  • Apply diluted garlic over these pimples and include lots of garlic in your daily diet as garlic is a valuable remedy in treating pimples.
  • Never pop a pimple as the infection can spread on other areas too creating mess all around.
