Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain the first thing that the removal of acne scars that are lasting since twenty years is not an easy task and can take a long time for them to fade as well as you need a combination of topical as well as chairside treatment..
The medications advised to you are all anti-acne medications and can helpful in providing some resolution..
You should also add up facewash containing Salicylic acid and glycolic acid for washing face as they help in easy peeling off of the dead skin..
You should also exfoliate your skin twice a week using a gentle face scrub..
You can also go for treatments like Microdermabrasion, chemical peeling, dermal rollers and Fractional CO2 lazer..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
