Suggest Home Remedies For Acne Scars On Face

Hi, I have acne prone skin and I use adaphalene for my pimples. About one month back, I have got a facial bleach done. My pimples have turned dark brown after bleaching my face. These pimples have left dark spots which are visible even after a month. My wedding is in one month and I am really concerned. Can you please suggest me some home remedy for this. I have applied olive oil over it for 2 weeks but it did not work.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne scars on face and you took medications for that which is not affecting your condition. I would suggest you to start applying mashed potatoes on your skin and keep it for 10-15 mins 2 times a day. You should give daily application of Glycolic acid 6 percent and retino a cream over your scars as it will lighten scars. Apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil and apply them on scars. Take diet rich in vitamin E. Drink plenty of water. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and go for micro-peeling and dermabrasion. You can apply aloe vera gel on them as well. Don't use ant cosmetics and hard substances on face.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Take a good care of your health. Get Well soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
