Hello,
Isotretinoin is one of the best treatments to deal with acne and dark spots. You may first try it as a cream and if it does not give enough improvement in 6 weeks you may take the oral form for a few months. Meanwhile, keep your skin from the sun and try not to poke on the pimples as this may cause the lesions to be dark and to spread as well.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General & Family Physician
