Hi..
Welcome to Healthcare Magic..

I have gone through your query and can very well understand your health concerns..

As per your query Imbalances,Bacterial infection,Inflammation,Excess sun exposure etc.

On the other hand scars/holes are left when the pimples are deep and aggressive..
Scars are of different types like Boxcar scars, waterpik scars, rolling border type and the treatment is not completely done with topical medications and you might need certain chair side techniques depending upon type of scars like Microdermabrasion, microneedling,excision with elevation, dermal rollers, Fractional CO2 lazers etc depending upon the scar type..
You can start applying silicone gel over the scars..
Do cool compresses over face..
Exfoliate your face twice a week to unclog the pores and remove dead skin..
You can also apply a sunscreen lotion when exposed to sun..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora..
