Face Acne and acne marks..
Doctor I am experiencing constant acne breakouts on my face and leaves stubborn acne marks . I have a dusky skin complexion and a combination skin ( oily around the forehead and nose area and dry skin around the sides of the face).i also keep beard on my face.Right now my doctor suggested me to undergo a chemical peel for better and speedy recovery but don't mention what is the percentage of the peel under my first sitting is over. Doctor is saying I need to carry out a two more sessions to see the results which will be carried out within a few weeks apart.Kindly suggest what else to be taken care of should I start any tablets orally apart from vitamin c which I am taking now.i heard that benzyl peroxide is good to use on fresh acne breakout to prevent the acne from causing scars .Can any one suggest me any methods to prevent my issues in future..?

Depends on the grade and severity of the acne we decide the treatment plan. Proper medical history and examination need to be done for proper assessment. There are no picture's attached too so cannot suggest or comment.
