adamm53 0 Share Posted August 22, 2004 My acne leaves behind dark spots. No holes or pits in my skin, seeing that I do not pop I am not left with any indentation in my skin.These dark spots, are they classified as scars?They do fade naturally over time, but the fade time is a year or for the smaller ones.If I use peels will it help?What about microdermabrasion ?

OursFan 3 Share Posted August 22, 2004 The dark spots are "post inflammatory hyperpigmentation". Scars are permanent, and your marks probably aren't permanent. Most peoples' fade within a year. Peels/microdermabrasion may help the appearance of your scarring, but everyones' results are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
