Acne dark spots and scars

Hello! I have problematic skin. I breakout alot and I scratch it off which creates a scar and dark spots on my skin. I am trying to get rid of that habit. How can I get rid of dark spots and scars? Thank you❤️

RE: Acne dark spots and scars

Highly recommend doing research into getting a Microneedling roller (also called Dermaroller) for treatments at home! They’re not expensive but the most effective if you want to see results within a few months! It basically makes micro tears in your skin to promote cell renewal and healing - produces more collagen, heals hyper pigmentation/ scars and helps with fine lines/wrinkles! After microneedling, your pores will be open which will help any serums you use get penetrated deeper into the skin. If you’re not into microneedling, you can use exfoliating ingredients such as products with AHA’s or BHA’s ( in serums, masks, exfoliants, peels) to help brighten your skin and help your scaring. Hope these tips help! (These are the answers I’d also give my clients when they ask about skin. Let me know if you have any more questions I’d be happy to help, and best of luck! ☺️💕)

Re: Acne dark spots and scars

I cleanse my face with tea tree oil soap, and one of those rubber exfoliating pads. I use Neutrogena Rapid Clear: 3 in 1 Fight and Fade toner. I've been using it on and off since high school, but for the past year or 2 its never left my side. Fights acne, and fades marks 🙂 I then moisturize with Caudalie: Vinoperfect Radiance Serum morning and night. In addition to the serum, in the mornings I use a moisturizer ***with SPF***, and at night, about 3 drops of primrose evening oil. For those tough spots, I have Benzagel, but it really dries out skin, so use sparingly and only on spots

African Black Soap, Peter Thomas Roth Anti Aging cleansing gel and The Ole Henriksen Truth serum have been a great combo for me! ALSO exfoliate! I use the Freeman black sugar charcoal mask which is about $4-$5 at Walmart!
