I've not had acne for 2.5 years and my redness still lingers. It's very individual.
Yes!! It is very individual. It sucks major! It's been 2 or so months sinceI have started using sunscreen diligently and I amseeingresults. Prior to that, I had 4 or 5 (lol) Vbeam treatments which definitely did accelerate the cessation of the redness but I didn't use sunscreen then. So im guessing my results were slightly hindered. But nevertheless, my face improved a lot. I'm sure if I went for a few more whilst using sunscreen religiously, i would achieve more phenomenal results. But,I'm currently in a period of expenditure,so I can't afford it (it's cheap though, $100 for temples and cheeks @ my local doctor's practice). 100% recommend it IF you make way every day to use sunscreen every day!
Mine usually fade within a few months time, but I had one bad zit on my cheek going on two years ago in January and it's STILL slightly red. wtf, man? No indented scar, just redness. I have one indented scar on my chin that I got a little over a year ago that is still somewhat discolored (more brown than red), but it is hardly noticeable now and I expect it to be skin colored completely some time next year. Anyway, not sure why that one zit on my cheek was so special that the redness is lingering so long -_- I have had plenty of bad zits and none of them did that.
Same problem with me. I've had several cysts on my cheeks that have left marks that just don't want to go away. I've had them for several months and I can't tell if they've faded any. I don't even really care about the acne much anymore it's just those darn marks they always like to leave. I'm pretty sure they aren't hyperpigmentation because they're red and skin exfoliation treatments like chemical peels haven't helped them much if at all.

Are they all lasers?
