Hi I recently got told I had mild - moderate acne, I have been using acnecide for about 3 months and experienced massive improvement! However I have red marks on my cheeks too.. so I went back to the doctors recently, she told me they would gradually fade over time and it's been 4 weeks since seeing her, i can see they are now fading slowly, it looks like you have acne similar to what mine was like in November before I started acnecide treatment. I can't applaud it enough. But as for the red marks I'd apply a good moisturiser- I use Cetaphil which Acnecide recommends to use in conjunction with their cream. It's really hydrating and your red marks will fade over time.
