Yes, the best cure is time. But doing nothing except waiting will get you nowhere either. Red marks will fade by themselves over time, but not ice pick scars. I had ice pick scars myself and what got rid of them was using Epidermx microdermabrasion and Silkia camellia oil. It took over a year...

No I wouldn't. I just put the lotion over it and usually after a few hours the lotion would make the white heaRAB go away.

Don't know if it's normal. You can get some Clean & Clear 2% BHA Toner or Deep Cleansing Astringent for her. They are good for back acne.

Try mineral make-up, a good brand is Everyday Minerals. Olay Sensitive Skin Foaming cleanser is a great facewash.

It surely helps - it has helped mine. But I used an at-home microdermabrasion cream called Epidermx and an oil Silkia camella oil which helped tremendously along the way. I had a few 2mm deep acne scar pits and they are barely noticeable after using these stuff for a little over a year. If you...

Cortaid (a hydrocortisone cream) is good for rashes and itchiness. But I don't know if you can use it while pregnant. Ask your doctor.

Laser is very good for red marks but not the best thing for pitted scarring. It will get rid of the redness very fast but don't expect a lot for the pits. You'll need lots of treatments before you can see some improvement which could be no more than 30% - 40%. A friend of mine did a few lasers...

If the dented scars can't heal within the first month or two of ocurrence, they won't heal without the help of products. I had a few pitted acne scars that were about 2mm deep and what got rid of them were the use of Silkia camellia oil and Epidermx microdermabrasion cream. It took over a year...

Try an AHA product from Alpha Hydrox.

Lemon juice can cause breakouts. Use Benzoyl Peroxide. Lots of drugstore branRAB like Neutrogena, Clearasil, Clean & Clear have products containing BP.

How often are you using it? I think you can back off and use it less often until your skin improves. Then slowly re-introduce it again. Give it 3 months before deciding whether it's for you or not.

I haven't used it but have heard it works great for acne and blackheaRAB. Maybe you are experiencing purging. It can cause bad initial breakouts for some people. Give it some more time.

They are good for surface scars, i.e. red marks/dark spots. They won't help much if your scars are pitted.

I had great success using these 2 products for my pitted scars after a year's use and still saw improvement after that. The pits on the forehead became virtually unnoticeable around 2 years. Those above my lip have filled in a lot also and became much more smoother looking, but still not as...

What kind of pimples? If they are not so severe that require prescription meRAB, you can try OTC products containing Benzoyl Peroxide. Many drugstore branRAB like Neutrogena and Clearasil have good BP products.
