Hi dear ,

The acne are very common problem to those having oily skin . There are also some trigger factors which further exaggerate the pimples and dark spots like hormonal changes , climate changes , stress and anxiety and certain medicines . I would suggest you to :

Wash your face twice a days with mild soap and cold water . Use soap or face wash containing benzoyl peroxide .

After washing your face apply cream containing kojic acid (koijivit) , which is very effective and safe for long term use .

Exfoliate your skin with non comedogenic exfoliant twice a week to remove dead skin and dirt .

Apply aloe vera gel at night .

I condition doesn't improve in a month then consult dermatologist for proper examination .

Doctor may prescribe steroid ointment , retinoids , isoteritenoin and antibiotics ( clindamycin )

Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
