Today I was hanging out with a few people and one of the guys pointed out the acne on my face. I almost died of humiliation and shame.

 

My acne isn't terrible. I only have one or two active pimples, but it's the intense dark red scarring on my cheeks and jawline that make people wonder if I am a burn victim. I've tried ACV toner for a few months, no luck. I'm actually close to tears right now.

Do any of you have suggestions for dark scars/red marks?

I hated when people did this so rude and inconsiderate,all I can suggest is keep out of the sun and wear a tinted sunscreen which can help hide the redness and go see a cosmetic doctor to see what can be done
