Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne scars on face, which occur when clogged pores of sebaceous gland filled with sebum ,dead skin and bacteria get infected. You are already taking treatment but not get benefited. I would suggest you to use product containing benzoyl peroxide. Apply isotrerntoin on face. wash face with clindamycin gel as well. Also wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day , exfoliate your face once a week , apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day as this is safe and natural extract of cereals. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course ( clindamycin or minocyclin ) at least for 10 days and you can go for microabrasion and chemical peeling for permanent removal of scars.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
