Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.
You seem to have got acne scars, if i am understanding it correctly. Acne scars can be improved by procedures like laser resurfacing, dermabrasion, chemical peeling, microneedling etc, to name a few. The choice of procedure( s) depends on the type and severity of scars. I request you to upload a few images of the affected area in " Reports section" so that I am able to have a look and guide you accordingly.
For blackheads you may use Adapalene 0.1% gel at night.
Hope I have answered your query.Let me know if you need any more assistance.
