I've been dealing with acne breakouts for a while now, and once they go away, they leave these dark spots on my face. My skin's pretty oily and almost half of my face has these spots, and it's really getting on my nerves. Can you recommend any lotions or gels that actually work on clearing up these spots and controlling the acne?

I'm really worried because I've been using Chymotra for a month now, hoping it would help with my hair fall, but it's only getting worse. More hair is shedding now than before I started using it.
