How To To Get Rid Of Acne?
I need to get rid of acne scars on my nose as quickly as possible. I already drink lots of water and have tried many remedies including on the spot acne gel, lemon juice and betnovette N cream- but none of them are giving great results. Something that could work overnight would be helpful. Any advice? Thank you!

Hello
Thank you for posting on HCM.
I appreciate your concern about acne scars.
Acne scars are pretty challenging to treat and treatment comes with variable results.You have to understand one thing that a scar is an area of permanent skin damage and to bring any positive change in it requires proper treatment and patience, so there is practically no treatment that works overnight.
I would suggest you to go for laser therapy (Fractional Co2 laser, Non-ablative RF etc) as it has the best results of all other treatment modalities. Moreover, if additionally treated with dermaroller or 100%TCA peel (CROSS technique), pretty appreciable results can be achieved in few months.
Hope this will take care of your query.
Wish you best of health.
Thank you
