I have acne all my life, but these left me with battle scars that are so horrible not even makeup could cover them. I survived acne flare ups but now I'm dealing with these horrible type of scars. any suggestions?

I agree with Reny that microdermabrasion done routinely by a pro is going to show improvenent. I know Mico needling is remarkably effective, but like lasers, these aren't always affordable. You may want to see if your derm or Medspa offers a payment plan that may be within your budget. Sometimes they have promotional specials that offer savings. I know my derm does because I get so many darn emails!
I'd use chenical exfoliating to help even out skin tone paired with a C serum to brighten... and indeed, use Retin A to encourage cell turn over/lighten. Counter further darkening with broad spectrum sunscreen and the dryness from a Retinoid with a moisturizer containing both hylauronic acid and glycerin. Best of luck to you.

Hi jenny! ohh its horrible but worth it at the same time. people at work even noticed the difference. what helped me the most was using clarisonic. It made a huge difference! I swear!! it may be expensive but I would pay over and over again to get more results out of this stuff. I'm pretty sure youre like me where you read almost every article and tried almost everything. just keep going! you will find the products thats suit you. and by the way, my fave before was HORRIBLE. at least now I can cover this with makeup a bit. 🙏🏻😁😘
