How do i get rid of acne scars & dark spots on my face??

around my mouth is especially dark. %26amp; i have tons of acne scars on my face.





i%26#039;m using that new clean and clear morning burst face wash and it burns my face %26amp; i brake out every time i use it.








i am so frustrated if i could i would scrape the skin on my face off. i am so desperate. please give me advice on what i can do or what face wash systems or brands are the best for my face.








thanks%26lt;3|||i recently had the same problem as you. i tried this for a month and my condition has improved so much.





Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash 2times a day


Basic Toner 2times a day


Clean%26amp;Clear Advantage Acne Control Moisturizer 2times a day


Clean%26amp;Clear Advantage Acne Control Spot Treatment up to 5times a day on your acne and scars


Mudd Masque 1time a week


drink at least 3bottles of water a day (clearifies the skin)


dont touch face


dont pick at acne or squeeze them -trust me it will cause you more damage than having that zit for a few days! (acne scars and the bacteria will spread causing more breakouts)


try not to wear an oil based makeup (try neutrogena or baremineral)


make sure to take off makeup when you are just around the house doing nothing and before you sleep.


the instant you get a pimple or you feel like you are getting one then put that spot treatment on (about 5times a day) and it will be gone in a day or two





dont become discouraged. a good routine will set you right. i know how you feel but i now love the skin im in :)


good luck and keep it up!!|||talk to your doctor|||well first of all if the clean and clear is burning your face then you need to stop using it because it%26#039;s too strong. I have sensitive skin and the same thing use to happen to me when I used acne related products.


I%26#039;ve always found that acne products can sometimes make things worse and not better so my advice would be to find a good mild face wash, try Aveno or Burt%26#039;s Bee%26#039;s brands, both have natural and mild products. And only wash your face with a cleanser at night, in the morning just wash with pure water and that%26#039;s it. Also look for a good face mask that you can use once or twice a week (Burt%26#039;s bee%26#039;s has a good green clay mask). This will help clean out your pores and prevent breakouts. This is all you really need to use (with a light moisturizer as well) because sometimes using too many or too harsh of products on your skin can cause more harm than good. As for the scars you can try putting vitamin E oil on them every night or tea tree oil. Both are known for fading scars and dark spots. Also there is a gel called Mederma that you can get pretty much at any pharmacy%26#039;s that is for fading scars. I used it for awhile and it worked quite well.|||Face pack for acne prone skin would be of honey (1 tsp) with 1/2 (tsp) of cinnamon powder. Apply for 15 minutes. Due to the antiseptic properties, bacterial infections in the skin are treated.

Try going to a dermatologist.|||well #1 don%26#039;t use that stuff any more if it makes u break out it deffinetly won%26#039;t help #2 I also have bad acne but I do have a type of medicine that helps. look up scar remover on google u might find something that will work #3 the best way to remove scars are to never get them (in other words find a soap that works|||You can get microdermabrasion facials. If you can%26#039;t afford to go to the facialist you can get a kit at Target. Do it twice weekly. Stop using what you are using. Also get some glycolic acid in your regime. It will help prevent acne.|||well i had acne scars on my face and i tried everything...but it never came off. So i just left it for like about 3 months and it cleared up. I looked up ways to treat acne but i didn%26#039;t find any. So the best thing to do is wait it out. If u don%26#039;t want them don%26#039;t pick at ur acne in the 1st place. That is what causes the scars in the 1st place|||Do you mean that there are dark hairs around your face? Because if there dark hairs then you could consider waxing.


For Scars: It might cost a bit, but you might want to go see a dermatoligist. My friend had a similar problem and she went to a dermatoligist to get her skin checked out, and her skin is glowing now! I think she was put on medication.


Last summer, I broke out a bit on my back because it was so hot and i was sweating so I picked and had acne scars..I went to a beauty salon and got dermabrasion. It does cost a bit but it works wonders. Depends how bad it is, you might have to get a few treatments but I got 2 treatments and they were $50 each. You could also try using bio oil or a scar treatment cream..i used bio oil and it worked a bit but be prepared to wait because it does take a bit to set in and work.|||For scars there%26#039;s a great over-the-counter product called Mederma. It%26#039;s about $17.00.... or around there. My mom has actually been using the mederma (she recently had the chickenpox, and has been using the mederma to help fade the scars or %26quot;pock marks%26quot;.) And it%26#039;s worked very well.

Neutrogena also makes an acne scar fading peel mask.

I%26#039;m not sure how well it works, as I%26#039;ve never used it and don%26#039;t know anyone who has. However, Neutrogena makes other products that I do use, and they do work well for me and my skin. Everyone%26#039;s skin is different, if you have very sensitive skin you want to stay away from harsh chemicals.





---As for makeup, if you%26#039;re a girl of course, because I don%26#039;t know, an excellent brand is bareminerals, it%26#039;s expensive, I%26#039;m not gonna lie, but it%26#039;s lightweight on the skin and doesn%26#039;t clog your pores or run like liquid makeups do.---





If you%26#039;re a guy, disregard that last part!





Either way, be good to your skin, drink lots of water and don%26#039;t poke at scabs.





Good luck :)|||I always use .St. Ives Apricot scrub to exfoliate. You can buy it at any drugstore for cheap. You can go to a doctors and they can prescribe you with medications or pills. Thats what i did after years struggling with acne. Drink lots of water and watch what you eat and well maybe this will help.
