Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Pls use Elacne face wash twice daily, glow C vitamin C serum twice daily. Sunrex gel sunblock to protect skin in the daytime and lytec C cream alternative nights to clear the comedones.

Hello dear. No gel alone will remove acne scars. You will have to combine it with some procedures to get best results.
Pimples in teenage are common and nothing to worry about. Just don't pick your skin and squeeze the pimples as it will lead to more scarring

Acne and acne scars both are different entities. If you gave active acne, then treatment would be different from just treating scars/ pigmentation. You need to share more details on your concern. Take a skincare routine for oily and acne prone skin.
Certain acne variants also need a course of antibiotics/ isotretinoin according to grade and severity so do share more details and pictures
