Greetings. Glycolic acid peels do help in acne and marks ( ghowver, for oily skinned individuals with excess acne, i would first consider salicylic acid based peels). Combination peels are another option. Efficacy of peels is variable, you'll see results over 3-4 sessions. Do follow strictly - the post peel instructions. Hope this helps, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru.
