Thanks for your query . Acne is very common problem in youth . It occur due to accumulation of sebum infected by microorganisn like bacteria in clogged pores of sebaceous glands.
I would suggest you to use cream containing kojic acid (safe for long term use ) . clean your face twice a day with face wash containing benzoyl peroxide daily , exfoliate your skin once a week to remove dead skin and drink at least 8 glasses of water daily .
For acne scar there there are number of treatment options available apply turmeric paste for 10-15 mins and then wash away and apply vitamin E oil at night .
I condition persist then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe antiseptic cream for acne , glycolic acid cream for scars and also recommend options like laser therapy (fractional laser ) and microneedle for scars .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
