Use a face wash with salicylic acid in it.
OR try a very light layer of sudocrem over them at night and during the day (if you rub it in) as it is white in colour.

Can I purchase Salicylic acid over the counter? Or does it need prescription?

Yeah you can get it over the counter. I use Alba Deep Pore Wash which helps fight breakouts and reduce marks. Not sure if you will break out with it or not.

Sudocrem or sudacrem is simply just a white cream like paste used for cuts etc. but if you search it on here, many people have had success with it. I find it helps to sooth my own acne and any marks I have had.
