How do you remove pimple marks from your skin?

Answer by  SMJ (72)

Hyperpigmentation (dark spots) can be treated with products containing hydroquinone and/or retinol. A dermatologist can give you a prescription for higher strength products, but often these compounds can be found in drugstore skincare products. Ambi and RoC are two brands that carry these products. Microdermabrasion and glycolic/lactic acid lotions can also be helpful in fading hyperpigmentation after acne.

To remove pimple marks simply clease your face daily, apply a drying toner or astringent (such as alcohol or witch hazel) and then apply an extremely hydrating moisturizer. The more dirt and oil you remove and the more moisture your skin recieves, the less likely pimple marks will appear or even stay.

I believe pimple scars and blemishes cannot be removed by you yourself. You must consult a dermatologist who might recommend such procedures as laser treatments to get rid of your marks. The best thing you can do, if you aren't ready to consult a dermatologist, is to leave the marks alone and let it heal.

Eat or drink products with Niacin in it, which naturally lightens skin. Also, invest in products with hydroquinone in it. Look on the label for "Acne Scar Removal."

A little foundation cream will cover any red or darker areas. Deep cleansing with an abrasive cream followed by a gentle toning wipe will make the skin look fresh and remove any surface unevenness. Deep pitting and scarring is more difficult and for that you need specialist advice.

The easiest way is to immediately ice the area until swelling reduces and then apply a small amount of antiobiotic cream a few times.

A great tip for removing pimple marks is to use aloe. Break open the plant and rub the gel-like substance on the marks. They should lighten or go away altogether.

To remove pimple marks or acne scarring you should use baking soda. It's good to use mixed with water to form a paste. Scrub the area for about 30 seconds.
