Hello. Thanks for your query. Oily skin and acne/blemishes go hand in hand.First you must use a cleanser specifically suitable for oily skin. Salicylic acid in 2% is available as foam or gel based cleanser and is ideal for oily and acne prone skin. Use it twice daily. Besides oral retinoids e.g. Low does Isotretinoin in a dose of 5 mg are also hemostatic and can be considered in your case. Topically, you can use a retinoid gel e.g. Darlene or Aramaic acid gel. They are comedo lytic and therefore would benefit acne and post acne pigmentation. Topical clindamycin gel or benzoyl peroxide gel are also specifically meant for acne. These are all prescription medications, I would suggest that you seek an appointment with a dermatologist before trying these. Regards
