Do acne scars go away
Common Questions and Answers about Do acne scars go away
acne
I have had acne red marks, not scars, that just won't go away. I've had them for about 2 years now and have tried products such as Differin & Atralin with no avail.
Is there any other solution?
Thank you, Doctors!
I believe in a lot of ways I was meant to do so. After I got licensed I not only broke out with cystic acne but I also began having bouts of plaque psoriasis. I tried to help others to not fell ashamed of their skin & to know that they can & should reach out to others....
I guess it's time to take my own advice!
Please, any help or suggestions?
If you are talking about just like dark spots from post acne those can take up to a year to go away, they just fade away. But the deep ones are permanent unless you see a dermatologist and ask what they recommend by lookijng at them. I know I would like to get it done myself but it can be sooo expensive! Look it up online under a google search and type in acne scars and there are actually different types and it will tell you what kind of treatment works for what type of scar you have.
Apply hydroquinone cream on these scars and it should go away in a few days to months.If it still persists then you can go in for laser treatment, Chemical peeling or microdermabrasion.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or in case you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
I have acne scars on my face they're red and black what should I do to get rid o them I'm having them for 2 years now
Zinc
Studies suggest that people with acne have lower-than-normal levels of zinc in their bodies. This doesn't mean that taking zinc supplements will help acne.
Several double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have found zinc more effective than placebo but less effective than antibiotic therapy.
In one of these studies, 54 people were given either placebo or 135 mg of zinc as zinc sulfate daily. Zinc produced slight but measurable benefits.
m just hoping to figure out if this scarring will be permanent or if it will go away with time, or if I can do something to help them go away faster. Also, what could be causing this condition? Is there some kind of skin condition that I could have picked up by sexual or other close contact? I can't even have sex anymore with these scars. Too embarrassed to let anyone see me naked.
By the way, I've recently lost about 20 lbs and gotten back in the gym...
He took a look and said that there was nothing he could do about my scars and bump and that is was natral to have scars and they were dormant. He recomended that I go to a dermatologist. I was wondering if there were creams to get rid of the bumps and scars that a dermatologist could write a prescription for.
So it has been two weeks since I had a electrocautery on a test spot on my nose. So the scab peeled off twice and there was this red spot. Then a small crust formed over the red spot and fell. The red spot is still there. My dermatologist said to wait to see if it heals and returns to my skin color (light brown). How long will it take for the red spot to go away...
He suggested that it would not be worth doing electrocatery on the other bumps if they turn out to stay red...
i have severely oily skin one day and super dry the next (so dry my face is peeling) i have done tons of internet searching in regards to my acne and have yet to find something that makes the acne go away... i have 16 acne marks on my cheeks themselves. i have even went to my primary doctor and got some medication that does not work.
My mom and I researched it and were convinced it was rosacea, but I went to a dermatologist and she said it was acne scars and put me on all of this treatment. But I'm still stuck on the rosacea thing, because I just can't understand how all of these "acne scars" would have popped up overnight and spread around.And I have ZERO pimples on my face, it's just redness and spots. So isn't it pointless to put me on acne medication? I can post pictures if needed.
You don't need to do anything, Jim. Red marks left over from acne can take several months to fade, but once the Accutane has stopped new ones from forming the spots always go away. Save your money. You should be very happy in the not-too-distant future.
Best.

I do scar easily from acne, thats hereditary. I do have acne scars on my chest area, but below by breasts and down my stomach and sides, these random marks appeared on day. They are light brown-redish, dont hurt or itch or bother me physically except the skin is a little dry and coarse. But they wont go away and look terrible, It makes me very self conscious around my boyfriend and myself. Should I go to a dermatologist or will certain lotion/cream make them disappear?
