Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne problem which is mainly due to clogging of skin pores, stress and dehydration. I would suggest you to avoid exposure to oily, greasy and sharp food substances. Apply clindamycin gel as well. Apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil and apply them on scars. Drink plenty of water. Don't use any cosmetics and hard substances on face. Apply vitamin E oil at night. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and go for micro-peeling and dermabrasion. Take diet rich in vitamin E. You can apply aloe vera gel on them as well. Wash your skin 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil ,dust and bacteria on your skin.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
