You may have dry skin. Your body compensates your dry skin by producing more oil. That's why your face becomes oily.

Try to start a skin regime. Cleanse, Tone, Moisturise. Use products that are alcohol and fragrance free. However, don't load your face with products.

Control the acne before you battle the scars! However from experience.. the scars fade away by itself. It may take months. I've tried Hiru-Scar, it did help in fading some of my acne scars smile.gif

Some topical stuff you can invest in is T3 mycin which you will apply on your blemishes (day time) and you can get adapalene cream this one you use at night and you apply to your whole face. Normally after applying this cream your face will be quite moisturised so you don't need to apply anything after that. You can get these at your local pharmacy store smile.gif you won't get overnight effects. it may take up to 3 months for it to start really clearing up your acne.

Do I have to exfoliate my skin as well?

Try not to exfoliate that much.
Acne scars are hyperpigmentation which means that your skin is in shock due to a popped pimple etc.
Hence more melanin is activated in that area, so you'll see that area is slightly darker (melanin makes your skin darker) (this is a way your body protects itself)
So maybe once a week would suffice, and if you have an angry pimple then don't exfoliate that area.

Any product that I should use to exfoliate my skin?
Will exfoliate can help to lessen acne scars? since it will get rid of dead skin

Yes I do believe exfoliation will lessen the scars but not too much!

You should experiment around with the scrubs biggrin.gif personally I use the Clinique 7 day scrub (I think this is the name) I don't like scrubs with one biji one biji beads inside. Feels too harsh on my skin.
