Thanks for your query.

I am medical doctor, an associate in Department of Dermatology, working with an experienced Dermatologist. I answer on his behalf.

Apply Adapalene ointment, twice daily after washing the face. this has Vit A derivative and maintains health of the skin removing the scars and preventing new ones. Also controls oil.
