So i'm pretty new to this forum, I don't really know a lot about skin and what to use to get the best results that's why I came on here for some help. I'm 18 year old male I got a lot of red marks on my face which I want to heal. What do you guys recommend me to do and can I get some advice :P thankspic 1.JPGpic 2.JPG

Go see a derm

Only over the counter products I recommend are the BP and cleanser off this website.

But go see a derm she might prescribe you some medication for your skin ASAP

So what do I specifically have on my face, scars, hyper pigmentation or what?

I see some indented scars, hyper pigmentation and active breakouts.

I would get the active acne under control ASAP before anymore damage is done.

Luckily your acne is mostlyon your cheeks IMO the worse spot to get scarring is on the temples and forehead and around the mouth area.

Go get a food panel blood test done to see if you have any allergies. For me, the root was eating a ton of gluten and dairy. Once I ate a really healthy plant-based diet, my skin calmed down.

There are many scars, but also active acne. It looks like you don't have the right skin routine.

What are you using?

Yeah bro but your scarring is so minor which doesnt affect your looks at all you're a good looki ng guy and overall your skin looks good.

and I agree I always stress people to get medical attention when they have moderate to sever acne asap dont waste your time with homeade treatments or acne products found in. the stores and treat it before you get scarring and regret it . Which is what happened with me.

Yeah man thats true, I always thought I would never deal with acne since I didnt get it till the age of 17 and it was at its worse from 18 - 19 and my family had smooth skin unfortunately I lagged it on seeking medical help and now Im left with scars thankfully it isnt as bad as it could have been but I can live with them the only scars that bother me are on my temples and left cheek Im thinking of getting fillers and just skipping all the surgery stuff.

Permanent fillers in my 20s is tempting but scary to think about how they will look 20 years from now.

Yeah Im considering permanent fillers. I plan on getting a long last filler like Volumafirst just so I can get an idea of what sort of improvement I can get with fillers and then I go on and get silicone.
