I used to suffer from acne and pimples back in my teenage years. Now that i'm 20, most of it is gone but my face is still red which gives it the impression that i'm dealing with acne still. It's the redness from the scars of old pimples mostly.

How do i deal with those?

Then it must be pigmentation of the skin,did you read hyperpigment part of forum?

usualy its just the skin repaiting itself but theres creams and therapy that can help you out.

Yep, I think there are creams, masques or sprays which can help calm that redness out.

Microneedling and retinoid cream could help. Try asking a dermatologist.

Dermalmd rosacea serum completely removed all redness from my face within about 3 weeks of using. I now have very minimal rosacea acne showing up and no redness whatsoever. Needless to say I am so happy with this serum. I have had rosacea for many years and tried many prescriptions from the Dermatologist. But I am using this and a combination of vitamin d and an orally and I'm having amazing results. No more prescription meds or ointments.

Sun protection and time will sort most of it out. PIE or post inflammatory erythema use to be called macular erythema. Several effective ways to accelerate clearance 1. IPL or BBL 2. Vascular lasers (better solution) V BEAM or EXCEL V best as cooling systems protect skin 3. Laser genesis. Slow, safe, not downtime using long pulse Nd Yag. Most good acne scar dermatologist can treat this form of scarring easily. Respond well.
