I've looked around this website for a while now looking for some hope insperation or some new ideas. I've finally mustered up the courage to make a post and I'm hoping so much you guys will show some kindness and help me out with this.

I wouldn't mind scarring it doesn't even matter to me! Unless its red....... The color is my biggest problem will AHA Cream help me shed the red layers of my scars/marks? I've had 1 glycolic peel before and it helped so much the first time. Unfortunetly the same lady who did the first peel didn't tell me she was doing a diff peel for the second ( which made my skin worse ).

I've been dealing with this problem for 4 years and I'm so tired and out of energy. I'm going to be 21 and I don't even like being out in a Walmart for more then 5 minutes without becoming paranoid everyone is staring at me b/c of my face and either feeling bad or disgusted.

tl;dr

Will AHA Cream help my skin shed the redness / and are these redmarks or scars??

I wouldn't buy any AHA cream that didn't put the percentage of acid there on the label. I would look for a cream with 5-10% glycolic acid.

some of them look slightly indented to me, so they may be scars although u would be the best judge.
