In PCOD, recurrent acne is a problem. Also it can be associated with multiple other issues, so get your hormonal profile done and get treatment for PCOD. That is primary.
For the pigmentation due to acne, there are specific medications and peels available, but then the treatment would depend on the severity. You can consult online for the same.
