Of course I envy those around me with clear, smooth skin. My battle with acne isn't as bad as it WAS, but I'm left with scars that make me leave my hair down and around my face, unsuccessfully attemp...

I've had good success at fading red marks by using a product that was suggested by the physician's assistant who I've trusted to do facials and who oversaw all of my most recent acne treatments. It's...
