Every time after I shave, I get more acne in those areas. I use a safety razor and an oat based cream. I always wash my face beforehand. Is there a way I can reduce the amount of acne I get after shaving?

Are you sure that it’s the shaving and not the cream?
It would be easy enough to test, say by not shaving for a couple of days and applying the cream to one side of your face.
I had a reaction (not acne), only to some shaving lubes (it wasn’t the shaving, per se). I ended up noting the ingredients of the lubes and narrowed down what was triggering it. I now use oil or a really cheap, supermarket foam.
Good luck 👌🏼
