Are you using sunscreen daily? Even without treatment the redness should have been gone by now.

Nope, not using. Will it be of any help?

You wont get very far without daily SPF 30 or higher. The Sun will make the marks redder and prolong the healing process. You can get UV rays even when its cloudy, basically anytime you go outside and it isnt dark you want to have sunscreen on. I always recommend finding a moisturizer with SPF that is non comedogenic. I use the cetaphil one.

Aside from that you can use AHA or retin a at night to help them fade quicker. Theres also vbeam laser if money isnt an issue.

That sunscreen looks about right, don't forget though, if you are doing any acne treatments you should look into higher SPF like 50+

Cheers
