I absolutely agree with the 2 doctors (Dr Chua and Dr Colin) on the approach.
It should always be a mix of oral and topical treatments for the purpose of persistent acne.
Oral medications examples include spironolactone (for women only) which helps reduce congestion. Oral Isotretinoin helps to shrinks the oil glands. If you are very bothered, consider discussing with your doctor on this matter.
Topical treatments like carbon laser (which I adore) and chemical peels do a great job in improving the general appearance of the skin.
Top it off with a light chemical peel at home (glycolic or lactic acid) and with a gel-based moisturiser. This should help!
