Brief Answer:
Regarding acne scars and open pores

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

Pores are proportionate to the size of sebaceous glands. People with oily skin have big pores due to the large size of sebaceous glands. Though it is not really possible to reduce pore size significantly but you may use a salicylic acid face wash e.g AHAglow-S face wash which would remove excess oil, reduce oiliness and refine the pores.
As far as acne scars are concerned, there are many things which can be done like chemical peeling, Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing, Dermaroller, Microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF), Subcision etc. They can be combined depending on the degree and type of acne scarring. You may pay a visit to a dermatologist near you and discuss the procedure(s) best suitable for your acne scars.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
