Question 1

how to remove acne marks?

Accepted Answer

Specialist work: A dermatologist can make the scars less apparent using a laser, filler, or dermabrasion. Before you do this, consider whether this is what you really want. If you are a woman, most men don't care but you'll probably get a good result. If you are a man, look at the hollywood stars who have kept their acne marks to look tougher (jet li, charlie sheen, stephen segal, many others.).

Question 2

how to remove acne mark.?

Accepted Answer

DEPENDS!!!: Different acne marks must be treated in different ways. See a dermatologist.

Question 3

how do i remove acne marks naturally?

Accepted Answer

Can't be done: They fade with time, though it often takes several months. It's more important that you avoid getting new lesions. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, your personal physician can help with prescription-strength medication.

Question 4

pls help me dr. how can i remove acne marks?

Accepted Answer

Post inflammatory: Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a common and normal response during the healing process.  When traumatized skin heals, redness, followed by dark discoloration often occurs.  With time, the site will usually resume normal coloration to match the surrounding skin.  Avoid picking and overly drying facial products &amp; consider a noncomedogenic concealer.

Question 5

does oxytetracycline actually help for acne? and does it remove acne marks

Accepted Answer

Not for scars: Tetracycline can control the development of acne and help in healing the ones there, but it does not do any thing for the scars/marks of acne.

Question 6

how can i remove acne marks and stop pimples from coming back? i have acne pupules and oily skin.

Accepted Answer

Manage your acne: You're almost an adult. If topical benzoyl peroxide and/or retinoic acid haven't cleared you in two weeks, your physician will need to add prescription-strength Rx. Keep doing this until your acne remits on its own. There is nothing you can do to speed its self-curing. Dark spots can be bleached but I'd advise you not to try; depressed scars need specialist intervention.

Question 7

i was wondering is betamethasone valerate/neomycin good to remove acne marks?

Accepted Answer

Terrible idea: The redness and hyperpigmentation that follow acne lesions are basically something that you need to allow to fade. Betamethasone will make your new lesions worse and make you more prone to acne, and suppress you ability to fight the microbes; it can also cause atrophy of your face, disfiguring you. Plus, you're using a prescription drug improperly. Your physician can advise you on acne control.

Question 8

can you tell me is betamethasone valerate/neomycin good to remove acne marks?

Accepted Answer

Terrible idea: Please forgive my frankness. Betamethasone can make your skin atrophy and it won't help at all. Red and brown post-acne marks need to fade on their own. The acute lesions will probably be made worse by the betamethasone. Scientific acne rx starts with benzoyl peroxide as tolerated, and if this does not clear you, getting prescription-strength rx from your physician. Best wishes.

Question 9

how to remove hyperpigmentation/acne marks?

Accepted Answer

Hydroquinone: This is your best bleach. Don't overdo it. The marks eventually fade on their own, and they probably look worse to you than they do to anyone else. Especially, i'm sorry your acne wasn't treated properly in the first place. Best wishes.

Question 10

hi doc! whats a good facial cleanser to help remove red acne marks/ post infammatory hyperpigmentation marks. the marks have been a problem . thanks?

Accepted Answer

Basically you can't: I'm sorry. These are going to need to resolve on their own. A hydroquinone bleach may help the brown spots, but nothing will help with the red spots. You're an adult now and I'm sorry that you acne wasn't managed aggressively when you were younger. Take charge of its care until it remits on its own. If benzoyl peroxide isn' enough, your physician can Rx stronger medicine.
