Acne?
Posted: 01-28-05 23:48pm

Around august for some reason I started getting bad acne. I wouldnt get alot of pimples, but id always have a few, and they would always be big ones. Now I hardly have any ance, just a small pimple here and there. But I have red spots on my face. If you feel my face, its completely smooth, not 1 bump on it, but I have a lot of little red spots. Some are really small like a pencil point, and some are like the size of a pencil erasor. They arent bumps, they arent dents. What is it? Are they acne scars? If they are, is there any way to get rid of em? Theyve been there for months, and they always looked the same, I though acne scars kinda dented in.

No I have those too, they're acne scars. People use microdermabrasion to take off the top layer of dead skin, I use st.Ives peach exfoliant twice a day, only on smooth areas (it will irritate your pimples) because my skin feels like a babys butt afterwards and it helps lighten scars very gradually.

The acne scars, depending on how bad yours are, may fade away over a period of time.

Don't worry - mine have faded so much. As long as they're flat, they'll go away in less than a yr
