Yoga medicines and remedies for acne 

Yoga is the best and natural way to get rid of the unwanted acne. It helps to increase blood flow to the desired area and also clean the toxins from the body. Yoga can also deal with constipation which is one of the most common reasons for acne.

Kapalbhati is the best yoga asana/pranayama for acne. For this sit on a chair or sit on the floor with legs folded and hands on the respective knees. Exhale consciously and forcefully. When you exhale your stomach will automatically go in. In this pranayama inhaling is passive. Kapalbhati will not only help to deal with constipation but will also help to increase and purify blood which in turn will give you a fresh and clear look.  

Supine posture also when practiced daily is effective in the treatment of acne. For this lie flat on your back on a yoga mat and place your hands on the sides. With the help of your elbow raise your chest from the floor so that the top of your head rests on the floor. Place the heel of your left foot on your upper right thigh very close to the hip joint and vice versa. Hold both your feet firmly with your hands. Deeply inhale via nose and exhale via mouth. Remain in this pose for 30 seconds and then relax.
