Hi Dear ,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have scars and redness on the face and oily skin which is due to hormonal changes, stress and clogged pores of skin. For acne scar you can apply retinoic acid at night which is safe for long time use ,but concentration is important , you should use it in 0.025% concentration. For acne kojic acid (safe or long term ) at day time and sunscreen SPF 15 while going out side will be very helpful. Acne occur due to clogged sebaceous gland pores or duct so exfoliation of skin is also important twice a week. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination and decide the line of treatment depending upon the severity of your condition because there are many procedures like microdermabrasion, chemical peeling and laser therapy.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
