Acne scars

Maybe try microdermabrasion. I had it done at a dermatology office it definitely helps. Other than that and I know this isn't the most appealing but if your skin is clear use a little merderma for scars in the spots at night. My skin is fairly oily so i only did it very infrequently I had like 3 small scars that faded over time.

Re: Acne scars

For something like that you, IMO, must see a dermatologist. There are, nowadays, SO many options for treating that where you can get amazing results. They have light therapy, glycolic peels, microderm treatments, laser treatments, etc. You should consult with a well respected dermatologist and they will advise you based on your skin.

I can highly recommend Dr. Donna Serure in Smithtown.

Re: Acne scars

I heard that fresh lemon juice and raw honey masks can work if you were looking for a DIY remedy.

Rose hip oil. Tamanu oil. Sacred frankincense oil.

Use those and then do microdermabrasion abrasion.

You have options. Chemical peels, photo rejuvenation, Retin A, etc. All of these are considered cosmetic and can be expensive.

I have the same problem I have a lot of acne scars and my friend just turned me on to this stuff called Glam Glow super mud. Its this mask , I use like twice a week , you can also just do spot treatments do where your scars are the worst. In one day I saw noticeable improvements. It's not cheap, like $70 but I have been using it for a week and my face looks AMAZING! Take a look at the reviews on it, the stuff has been like a miracle for me. I got it a sephora.

Are you scars like tissue loss? Like the pits in your face kind of scars?

No they are like dark red spots from past pimples.

OK those I can cover with makeup so they are never an issue for me.
I have some deeper scaring from cystic acne that nothing really helps
