Suggest Treatment To Get Rid Of Acne And Acne Scars

Hello, I am 24 yr old female. I have acne since I was 18 and I am still fighting with them. I have done medicated courses of 6-8 months course for 3 times. But they were of no use as acne again came back. From then, I am simply using herbal acne cream from jovees but from last one year, it also not working. What should I do now? As nothing is helping me much. I still have lot of acne and acne scars.
