I have heard alot about getting sun burn and it kills the acne for a while. Should i do that or is there another way to make your skin peel as if you had a sun burn

Please don't get a sunburn; it will just make your skin worse in the long run. Why not try a chemical peel?

Well, I wouldn't call any chemical peels truly safe because everyone reacts differently to them. Make sure you do a patch test first. You could try alpha hydroxy acid peels using glycolic acid or lactic acid, or you could try a beta hydroxy acid peel using salicylic acid, which is probably the best option for acne-prone skin because beta hydroxy acids are lipid soluble and can exfoliate within the pore. Dermatologists and certain spas perform them.
