Hi Preji,
Good wishes for your wedding.
For acne pit you could try dermabrasion or microdermabrasion or laser/cosmetic surgery from a renown dermatosurgery center.
But home treatment is unavailable for removal of your pit. Self treatment may be harmful for face.
Therefore please don't experiment with face and specially before marriage.
With regards

Dermatologist Dr. Gunjan Shah's  Response
Dear Preji,

The treatments that can give you long-lasting results are
1. CIT (collagen induction therapy), done with a micro-needle roller, commonly known as derma-roller. (appx 3-5 sessions should give you good improvement)
2. Fraxel LASER treatment
3. CO2 LASER resurfacing

Microdermabasion will give you temporary results.

As Dr.Mahmud said, there is no 'home-use' treatment that will help in reducing skin surface texture irregularities.
