Is there a way to get rid of little pimple scars?

i always get them from popping the pimple..after a while i get a red mark that never goes away..|||Never touch your face with your fingers at all. You have oil in your hands and fingers that you are transferring to your face. Pimples will erupt by themselves eventually. To get rid of those little scars you need a good skin peel. If you can afford to have your face peeled professionally then use the face peel I use. It is Avon%26#039;s Anew clinical advanced retexturizing peel. It is 25.00$ for a jar which is a good price. You only use it every other day and I have heard a few people say they cut those pads in half. I don%26#039;t though. I use the whole pad. What moisture is left on the pad I put on the back of my hands. Try it and see if it works for you? And get those fingers off of your face !!!!!!!! lol|||garnier ,skin naturals ,light ..awesome , affect seen in a week , go get it|||eh..just don%26#039;t pop your pimples, and don%26#039;t pick at the little pimple scars for they will get probably worst....|||i%26#039;ve not found a way yet but if you get good answers let me know!|||I get them too. Sephora sells skin bleaching creams (tried it, but eh) and Proactiv makes a cream just for the dark spots where pimples used to be (never tried it). But I usually find that tanning (don%26#039;t have to go to a bed, just don%26#039;t wear sunscreen) and exfoliating helps the most. You could also get a chemical peel or laser them off. My friend got a light chemical peel and it really evened out her skin.|||No, there is not, so please don%26#039;t pick at pimples- they will leave when ready, though, they are NOT permanent. If you are embarrased by these scars, though, try finding a %26quot;magic stick%26quot; or cover-up to cover them every morning. These things work miracles!|||There are good ways to eliminate acne, but the scars are much more difficult. Scars are the result of your body producing a different sort of skin, and they are more or less perminant.





There are cosmetic surgury options, but they are expensive and very painful. You should only consider them if your scars are quite bad.|||Proactive.....also try not to pop your pimples, i know it%26#039;s easier said than done.|||I used proactive, it works really well with scars. And sometimes there are these really annoying scars that won%26#039;t disappear!! So I used skin lightening cream just on the spot. It%26#039;s gone in about a week. Use the Skin brightening cream from bath and body works. $12. %26lt;%26lt;hope this helps!!


(p.s. after you pop ur pimples, wipe it with a alochol wipe that u used to clean a cut w/ so that no bacteria or dirt get into it.)

What works better on scars, olive oil or Mederma?

Or both?


I have cuts on my arms from self harm, and I know that I can%26#039;t get into the Air Force if I have any history of Depression. I need to get in, it%26#039;s been my dream for so long!





Can you help me decide which would work better? Or if I should use both?|||Your pathetic.|||Mederma should work.





No scar can ever be completely removed and treatments will always leave a trace, but a number of approaches have been tried with silicon gel sheeting and steroid injections having the most widely accepted role in general scar treatment.





Treatments for Scars:





In historical sequence, corticosteroid therapy by injection into the scars was introduced in the 1960s.





The use of lasers on scars is a new form of treatment that is still being improved.





Vascular lasers have been proven to greatly reduce the redness of most scars 6-10 weeks after the initial treatment. They have not been proven effective in flattening scars however. It has been theorized that removing layers of skin with a carbon dioxide or erbium laser may help flatten scars.[citation needed]





Several cosmetic lasers have been FDA approved for the treatment of acne scars by using laser resurfacing techniques.





Here is info about how to stop cutting too:





Generating alternative behaviours that the sufferer can engage in instead of self-injury, and shaping the use of such behaviours, is one successful behavioural method that is employed to avoid self-harm.Techniques, aimed at keeping busy, may include journaling, taking a walk, participating in sports or exercise or being around friends when the sufferer has the urge to harm themselves.The removal of objects used for self-injury from easy reach is also helpful for resisting self-injurious urges.The provision of a card that allows sufferers to make emergency contact with counselling services should the urge to self-harm arise may also help prevent the act of self-injury. Alternative and safer methods of self-harm that do not lead to permanent damage, for example the snapping of a rubber band on the wrist, may also help calm the urge to self-harm.
