Dermatologist Says I Have Ice Pick Scars But I'm Certain They Are Just Red Marks?

I have been off of accutane for 5 weeks now. Both my cheeks have lots of red marks which feel completely smooth and have faded about 25% from the pictures I took 2 months ago. I saw my dermatolgist for the last time today and he said that I have ice picks scars and these are only going to fade a little over the years? I know that these marks are just red marks because they feel smooth and have faded a bit with time and when I look in the mirror in different lighting I see no indents. So, I am wondering, can these red marks somehow be ice picks or develop into ice pick scars??

Why not post an image and we can tell you if they are ice pick, or red marks as you think?

Maybe he is not refering to your red marks but to something you might see as dialated pores. Ice pick scars can be realy tiny
