i'm wondering how long it takes for ice pick scars to form on the skin. I have a few (maybe 4 or 5) very small ice pick scars that formed on the skin around my nose. at first i was freaking out because i haven't had any active acne on that area for years (maybe 7 years ago) so i thought it was strange that i woke up with them all of a sudden. is that normal?i do have a lot of hyperpigmentation on my cheeks which are fading thanks to tretinoin but is it possible that ice pick scars can form even after they have faded? i'm still a bit new to this. thanks in advance!

A scar wouldn't just appear from acne you had 7 years ago. Are you sure the scars were not there the whole time and have just become more noticeable?
