You might consider..: Microneedling is the process where small needles are used to penetrate the epidermis and the dermis, creating micro pores that allow deeper application of certain topical medications, such as lightening agents. Some patients have had good results with evening out skin tone, reduction of fine lines/wrinkles, and even improvement of scars and stretch marks.

Accepted Answer

Not enough time, but: Sometimes, one can decrease redness and irritation on acne skin by using an antibiotic gel such as Cleocin gel on the acne areas. For 5-7 days, adding twice a day hydrocortisone cream can soothe redness and irritation (but hydrocortisone is for short term use, and not to be used for too many days). Taking an oral antibiotic such as doxycycline can help decrease pimples within a week.
