Not effectively: It is a drying and desquamating agent. But it's peeling effect doesn't go deep enough to cure acne scars. Instead laser or surgery may lessen the intensity of the scars. Epiduo is a good treatment for acne and therefore can help prevent scarring if used under a psycicians guidance

Only active acne: Epiduo may help to resolve active acne lesions but generally does not help to improve existing scars.
