What is a good way to get rid of red marks on your back and shoulders that are not acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Red Marks: Red marks from acne are simply left-over inflammation from larger pimples. It will fade with time or could be camoflaged with topical tanning agents. Ipl (intense pulsed light) or laser is a quicker, but more expensive option.
