Hi
I'm fairly new here but have been posting on and off since I joined and now I have a question I hope you can help me with.
I had a recent acne outbreak on my cheeks and they have left red marks that I know will fade in time but is there anything I can do to speed up the process?
Thanks Laura |

I spot treat mine with a cotton ball that has witch hazel and an aspirin on it. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes. |

Thanks for this tip - I have a red mark on the side of my face from trying to pop a zit using the salt-water technique, so I'll give this a try. |

I Laura! I whole-heartedly recommend EpidermxII microderm scrub and it's sister moisturizer Chyrsalyx. When I started using this combo was skeptical, but within a week my acne scars started literally melting off of my face--- it was incredible! You can get a two-week trial pack here to give em a test run:

hi manslayerliz
how many bottles of the EpidermxII did you use before you saw results? Have your red marks faded for good? Also, is it necessary to use the moisturiser? |

Hi faeridust! Well, quite honestly I saw my marks fading after just one week of using EpidermxII and Chrysalyx together, so I didn't even have to use 1 single bottle to get good results. My red marks have definitely faded for good now. I have one or two deeper scars that I'm still working on, but my face full of red marks is gone. I think you can still get pretty good results if you only use EpidermxII without Chrysalyx, but the Chrysalyx really does speed up the whole process of erasing the red marks, so I definitely recommend it. HTH! |

I exfoliate and then use Sonya Dakar Green Tea mask. I would do this frequently until it was gone and personally, it took the most, two days. |

aloe gel can relief the redness but I've using rosehip oil to cure the mark. The bad thing is it take some time but the result is good. My overall skin gets better. |
