Are These Pink Marks Indented?

I've had acne in the last, but got two pustules on my cheek a month ago, I think due to a summer of using lots go heavy SPF creams. Anyway, both came to a big white head. I left one and just covered it in Benzoyl peroxide until it dried up, scabbed over and then the scab flaked off. The other one i gently squeezed and it went flat almost immediately, scabbed and then the scab flaked off recently.

 

I have never noticed such pink scars before from acne. Is this a good sign or bad one? In certain lights they definitely look indented. Will they end up as indented scars?

 

I've also attached a front view of my face. You can't see the pink marks in this one, but you can advise me on any treatments I can have to improve my skin.

 

Many thanks

Depends on how good your body is with repairing itself. The longer it's red/pink the most likely it will scar and stay there. If you're worried I would suggest you visit a derm!
