HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Any hormone based contraceptive would help with the skin. You can use an oral contraception or a IUD contraceptives.

There are also hormonal contraceptives that can be implanted under the skin as well.
Your gynaecologist can tell you which options are available to you.

I hope this helps
