Hello,
Thank you for writing to us on HCM.
The red marks you are currently having must be either erythema left by acne and macular scars. The best treatment option would be a series of chemical peels with glycolic acid done by a certified dermatologist. The regular sessions of this peel will resolve your acne, its marks and the macular scars left by acne.
Make sure you use a good sunscreen while on treatment.
Thanks
