Suggest Remedies For Scars On The Face Due To Acne Infection

In under a month I went from having few blemishes on my face to having a full blown swollen rash that spread progressively from my right cheek to the left . It was painful swollen itchy and tender . I ve been using acne creams and finally was prescribed minocycline ( clearly my fave became infected) . It s been just under a month and most of the swelling, itchy and pain is gone but the rash persists . The odd part is that it seems to have central spots and then travels to surrounding skin through branch like lines.
