Hey everyone! I just have a question. I have many acne scars on my face (and also my back) that haven't faded since grade 7 (in grade 10 now) the acne scars are red, they look like pimples, and there flat. If you touch my face you can't even tell I have acne. I need help, no one else in my family has acne. I feel embarrassed to talk to new people and it causes me to have low self esteem. What can I do to get rid of them? I also get frequent acne. Just got 3 pimples today. Please help! Ill try to upload picture :) Thank you!

PLEASE see a dermatologist. The last thing you want to do is leave acne untreated and give it the chance to develop scars. That's the most important thing you can do now.

Regarding the red marks - there are different topical creams (Hydroquinone, retin a etc) as well as laser that can help, but again you should ask a doctor + you need a prescription for most of the creams.
