Manage the pimples: A few weeks of topical benzoyl peroxide and/or retinoic acid should help; if you don't see improvement in a few weeks, get with your personal physician who can add prescription-strength Rx. Red marks are basically untreatable; they're your skin healing. Brown marks may respond to a topical bleach but this is tricky and can leave things a mess. Pimples will eventually remit; manage until they do.
