Hey peeps, I have some, well, a lot of scars left from my acne, ones shown in the photos are mixed, I have some dents and some raised scars, and some that I don't really know what they are. The scars on temples are in the same place, just under different lighting, you can see that those dented scars that have shadows are actually white when looked at under direct light.
I'm not really familiar with scar types, so if someone could identify the type that'd be great.
My biggest issue with my skin is that there is visible discoloration, redness when under low light and white (whiter than my actual skin tone) on my temples and cheecks.
I haven't tried any treatments yet, so before I commit to anything, I would like to get some suggestions as to which treatments I should be looking for and which to avoid.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks you for including your picture and background info that is helpful 😉

First of all thank you for your response. Secondly, wow, that was a lot of information to take in. I don't know half of the stuff you mentioned,
Your response was very helpful, I will be taking that advice to consult multiple Drs before puttingmy trust in one with my skin.
A lot of this stuff will be hard to explain as I do not live in US or UK, but i'll try my best!
Again thank you so much for your suggestions!
