Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic. Active acne particularly if severe can lead on to scaring and pigmentation. Before you can do anything about the scaring you must first take treatment to control acne activity. In my patients of acne I normally put them on one of the Oral antibiotics if they have moderately to severe grade of acne. Various options that I choose from are either Doxycycline or Minocycline Or Azithromycin. Topically I ask my patients to use benzoyl peroxide gel twice daily. Oral retinoids are an option too if acne is severe and not responding as desired to the traditional antiacne medications. These are all prescription products and therefore you must visit a dermatologist for a prescription of these. Your dermatologist would be able to assess the severity of your acne and advice accordingly. Once acne is under control, you can then go for treatment of acne scars. Various methods that can improve the appearance of acne scars are Dermabrasion, Fractional CO 2 Laser, Microneedling, Chemical peeling etc. I would suggest that you seek an appointment with a dermatologist in your region for proper treatment of acne and later for acne scars.
