Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have oily skin and acne scars on face which occurs because of hormonal changes, excessive stress, dehydration, excessive exposure to sun light. It could occur when clogged pores of sebaceous gland filled with sebum ,dead skin and bacteria get infected. You are already taking so much medications and it is not benefiting you. You should apply products containing benzoyl peroxide. You should take oral retinoids and can apply them as well as they are very effective. Also wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day. You should apply clindamycin gel on face two times a day. You should exfoliate your face once a week. Drink plenty of water. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course along with chemical peeling, microabrasion.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
