Brief Answer:
Adapalene and clindamycin combination

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Pimples or acne can be controlled easily by using a combination of retinoids and antibacterial creams, However chickenpox scars are deep and are difficult o treat.
I usually advice adapalene gel in night and clindamycin gel in day to control pimples and have seen good response with this combination.
You can try this.
For chickenpox scars the treatment modality varies according to the depth of scar.
Please upload a photograph of the area involved.
This will help me in giving a better line of approach.
There is an option to upload photos on right side of query page, please utilize that.
Waiting for your response.
Thank you
