Brief Answer:
Benzoyl peroxide cream

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.

From your history it seems to be acne. I usually prescribe benzoyl peroxide cream. 2.5% strength. Wash your face and apply cream over acne and wash it after few hours. It does causes mild irritation in few people.

Hope I answered your query feel free to ask further related query.
