How to make the redness go away?

It has been 6 months since i got over my ances, and now i have a lot of really BIG acne scars. I don™t have any routine because my skin is allergic to almost products i used. Sometimes my skin is super dry and sometimes it is really oily. When it is oily i used alcohol to stop it.

Redness tends to go away given time and with adequate sunscreen use. Topicals such as vitamin c and niacinamide may help. But if you want more potent treatments, pulse dye laser (ex: Vbeam Prima/Perfecta) helps a lot. It can take 3-6 sessions.

stop using alcohol, it will irritate your skin.
