I used to have bad acne and my spots have gone done but have left red marks where acne used to be and aren't going away?

Takes time: Eventually, if you are not having new lesions, the old red spots will eventually fade to skin color, as long as you avoid sunburn or other injury. Unfortunately, it may take several years.
