General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello.
Thank you for contacting HCM.

I have gone through your question and you appear to be suffering from Acne Vulgaris.
If I were your treating physician I would recommend
TREATMENT:
Clindamycin phosphate gels/creams applied locally on acne twice daily.
VitaminA creams only to be applied in a very little amount only at the acne
at bedtime.
Daily application of a sunscreen .
face wash/ soaps formulated against acne to be used.

if your case is of a severe acne you may be prescribed Vitamin A
capsules.....but they have to be regulated by a dermatologist due to their potential side effects.

for scar marks vitamin c creams are beneficial.

In case of severe scarring the dermatologist may recommend procedure such as derma abrasion to clear up your scars once your acne has cleared up.

I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concerns.
Wishing you good health.
