I had one cystic pimple this past summer, it doesn't happen often but I was irritated. I put toothpaste on it (I know I know such a bad decision:( ) and it became a brown mark that peeled off and became red. It them developed a light brownish color and it remained on my face. Now it is a light brownish faded color with a bump underneath. What is that bump? Is it another blind pimple or something? It's been there for a while now and I just want it to go away soon. I've tried warm compress, face washes and lemon to make the mark lighter.

Probably the best thing to do it leave it alone, keep your face clean and it will fade in the next few months. You could always try retinoids, but if it is only that one spot it doesnt seem worth it.
