Takes time: I'm glad your acne is resolved, but it mostly takes time for scars and pores to lighten. Continue washing with a gentle facial cleanser and use facial sunscreen to avoid further damage. Sometimes a cream that hydrates the skin such as RoC retinal Correxion Sensitive night cream may make lines and pores less obvious. Sometimes a dermatologist may use a surgical procedure like dermabrasion or laser
