Scared About Scarring...

I made my first visit to the dermatologist yesterday and when she took a look at my acne, she said that I have a lot of scarring and that there are indentions in my cheek. Basically, she made it seem like my acne was severe. I don't know if my acne is the beginning of severe or what but I'm just terrified about having really bad scarring once it is all cleared up. I had clear skin in March and this hellish thing appeared in early August.

This is my regimen, btw. Do you think this will help the scarring fade?

Morning:

-Antibiotic Doryx

-Benzoyl Peroxide Wash

-Clindamycin Lotion

(I use a moisturizer as well because I heard the BP can be drying and a sunscreen because of the Tazorac)

Evening:

-Cetaphil Daily Face Cleanser

-Tazorac retinoid

Any advice? I'm 16 years old, btw, and these are my worst areas. (I got one whitehead smack in the middle of my forehead, which looks pretty funny I must say)

I think your acne is mild. :) Don't worry about it much. :)
