The answer would be: Isotretinoin

Isotretinoin is vitamin A derivative that has an effect on the skin. It will reduce sebum formation and secretion, so it will reduce the risk to form another acne. The anti-inflammatory will effect will reduce acne swelling and pain. The anti keratolytic effect will normalize the skin growth.
