So Far So Good Except That Redness :/

At the start of this year I started to get hiccups of acne on my face. It was miserable but I cooped. Up until recently most of it disappeared and now all is left is a few tiny pimples, couple of scars and that.. Redness.

 

I'm fine with everything except that redness. Basically my face is kind of light shaded red, but strangely the eye sections are perfectly normal.

 

Sorry but the iPads camera is not very colour correct, but I assure you my face is red. Just picture a subtle mild sunburn.

 

Does anyone know how to reduce the redness or cure it?

 

Thanks a lot,

Jack.

Most of your redness will fade over time (2-4 years), trust me. Try to eat a healthier diet and work out 4-5 x a week 20-30 mins to remove toxins. Wear suncreen EVERYTIME you go out. Even if it's cloudy; UVB still hits your face....Regarding your scarring, what have you done to treat it? Or plan on doing?

Or you could get laser for the redness/scar 2 birds one stone Fraxel Repair??

Thanks for the reply Robertitoo. For scarring i haven't done much. I think i might check out that "Fraxel Repair". How many sessions do you think i would require?

Cheers,

Jack.

Er, maybe if you use a chemical based one.
