Hello,
Welcome to health care magic.
Yes, you could use Bengel ( 2.5% Benzoyl peroxide) for active pimples. This also helps to lighten the marks to some extent. However, for dark spots left behind by pimples, I would suggest that you could use 2% Kojic acid containing cream at bedtime for 6-8 weeks.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
