A member asked:

I just had a pimple and it went away but it left behind a raised white bump. how can i make that go away?

Dr. Stanley Katz answered

If this truly is a hypertrophic acne scar, it may be injected with low dose cortisone in order to flatten it. See your dermatologist for evaluation and treatment.
