A member asked:
I have a garlic burn on my nose which is looking bad on my face i applied to get rid of acne 4 months passed away but the spot remained what should?

Skin burn: The scar can be from the acne itself. If it is red and inflammed, you can try hydrocortisone cream which will bring down any redness and may fade it. I would only use it once a day on the face for only a week at a time as it can depigment the skin if used more than that. Limit sun exposure as this may darken it. Sunblock is recommended. Also, with time, most scars fade on their own.
