Try a gentle exfoliating facial wash. It might help even things up.

Lemon juice mixed with a paste is supposed to lighten dark spots (maybe google a good recipe). Also, applying a glob of toothpaste over the scar before bed and washing it off in the morning has worked for me for lightening acne scars...good luck! :)

Bio oils! I am currently trying them and so far it works and it helps my skin clear up. However, it is a tad oily so keep that in mind.

The tiny bumps are undeveloped acne, acne that's under the skin and may stay forever it you leave it be. To treat it, you need to get to it first. Doing chemical peels and exfoliating will help you get deeper into it, as long as you're not doing them too often. Chemical peels will also help with scarring. One you reach the acne, you should just treat it like you would any other pimple, preferably with benzoyl peroxide. As for your dark spots, there are multiple ways of going about fixing them. My personal favourite is using a milk and lemon mixture with a cue tip and applying all over my dark spots, then leaving it all day. I do this every day, and use bio oil once a week, not to often in order to not clog my pores.

Daily face masks are more effective than cleansers.

Try:
Lemon juice and honey
Cinnamon and honey
Aspirin and water

You can also do spot treatments before you go to sleep.

Try:
Gel from an aspirin capsule
Cinnamon mixed w/water to make a paste + bandaid on top
Milk of magnesia
Pure tea tree oil

I have your exact sitch!! Frustrating isn't it?! I take a pill for my skin everyday and a antibiotic cream once a day at night, both given to me by my doctor. So ask him/her(:
