Mederma. Not natural, but amazing results. Can be a bit itchy at times, but only because you are rapidly regrowing the skin. See results everyday, amazing.
Talk to a dematologist. There are meds available. Remember that this is a result of some physiological, dietary and possibly emotional imbalances.





Do not put anything salty or acid on your open sores. This will definitely cause scarring.





Keep you face clean, washw ith very warm water, rinse with cool water. Keep hands off. No chocolate, greasy, oily, fried foods or anything with veggie or animal fats in it.





Fruits, veggies, juices - cranberry is good. Fish, chicken, almb, Low fat pork and extremely low fat beef. Nuts as well will help in the diet department.





See a doctor and determine the process to reduce the visual scars. Watch out for great listings of home remedies. Scars are the result of deep damage to living tissue. If a cure-all was readily available, no one would have any scars.
First thing is dont buy 20 tubes of clearasil....that is junk and you will be wasting your money......only one reasonable thing you can do and that is to go to a top notch dermatologist......my oldest son had bad acne 15 years ago and he was put on accutane and his face cleared up marvelously......most doctors will work with you on payment plans at a dermatology clinic.....do you have health insurance to cover this......if your case is severe see a dermatologist.
you been poppin' them zits again??





stop the poppin and the scars will be stoppin.
PIMPLES


Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin鈥檚 pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one鈥檚 parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.


The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.





GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.





1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .





2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.





3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don鈥檛 when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.





4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic


quality.





5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.





6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.





8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.





9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and


pimple scar.





10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.





11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.





12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and


yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.





13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.





14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.





15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.





16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.





17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.





Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.

I'm not too sure myself, but am intersted in knowing too. But the best thing I know is jhust to leave them to fade away by themself. You don't want to aggrivate the skin to much.
Dove bar soap evens out the dark spots
Go to a dermatologist. Your scars may fade with time, but if you really want their appearance.to go away, then you must see a specialist.
Acne can be embarrassing at the best of times. I would try going into a site called Epinions.com and find out what users are saying about various products. Good hygene which involves regular bathing helps a lot. Good internal health is a major contributor to healthy skin. Try and stay away from the junk foods. I鈥檝e also had good luck with a product called Acnezine. Try my source at:
