So I Got A Question For yall. Up until bout a month or two ago, any time I would get a zit they would come and go and would never leave any post acne marks. But now anytime I get one, they leave a very red mark that eventually turns into a dark spot (and i never touch em at all)and I cant get them to go away no matter what I try. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening, I use sunscreen everyday (which I sometimes think is the problem) but they still leave marks. Any ideas ?
This happened to me, as well as many other people who suffer from acne/ constant pimples. I'm not sure why this happens, its almost like your skin just kinda gets sick off the constant inflammation and gives up on healing it instantly, if that even makes sense? haha. It's completely normal though! The marks will eventually fade, just at a much slower rate. There are things you can do to speed up the healing such as exfoliation, chemical peels, using aloe vera ect. Also try and get your acne under control so it prevents any red marks forming in the future
Oh and keep using sunscreen everyday, extremely important!! that will stop the (already formed) red marks from getting darker and preventing them from healing.
