Dry Skin On The Chin, Spots On The Face. Need A Cure

i had dry skin on my chin, so used a scrub to get rid of it. i then found that the dry skin made my chin very spotty aswell. ive tried moisturising the skin to then deal with the spots, but that made my skin more spotty, and then i tried dealing with the spots first but that made my skin more dry; making alot more spots.
now the spots are open and scab-like and arent healing over, theyre very red, stand out boldly, and i dont know what to do to hydrate my skin and get rid of the spots.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You can use a hyaluronic acid containing gel for moisturization.
Aloe vera and shea butter containing moisturizer are known to be good.
Chemical peels can help in reducing the spots and give a glow to face with even complexion .A dermatology or cosmetology clinic can provide you these treatment options.
Hope this helps.
