how does it work for hyperpigmentation from acne scar.

i got a lot of red dots on cheeks and how long does it take to make they disappear???

P.S. any other acne scar product thats good??? not homemade stuff or proactiv

I’ve had these red blotches since I was in elementary school (now in high school). I do have a bit of acne, but I cleanse my face twice everyday with Clean & Clear, and sometimes put moisturizer on. My skin is slightly oily, but it’s mostly on my nose and forehead. I wash my hair everyday, if that matters, and I try to change my pillowcase as often as I can. I also clip my bangs to the side when I sleep, but these red blotches seem to never go away. The only things I pop are whiteheads, which don’t show up frequently.

I heard rosacea could be it, but from what I’ve researched, I don’t think I actually have it. Whatever’s causing it, it only appears on my cheeks. I do love spicy foods, but I control myself. The last time I went to a dermatologist was when my forehead was breaking out. My parents asked him to check my face to see if I could prevent pimples, because everything below my forehead was pretty much flawless, besides the red veins. He never said anything about them.

Are there any products that could help minimize, or even diminish these red blotches on my face? School is starting soon, and I feel really insecure about them.

Here’s a picture of my cheek:

I am asian, if that matters. I read that caucasians were more likely to have rosacea, and that ethnicities can contribute a bit to skin types.

Please answer if you can, and thanks in advance I apologize for such a long description.

I have excessively dry skin that is almost immune to any kind of lotion or cream. I am 13 and have had skin problems for almost four years, I am over acne but I still get blemishes. It is on my face (it’s affected my forehead, cheeks, and has even spread to my upper lip!), arms and hands and back. It’s horrible, I hate it. Please help! Oh, and my mom said that if it goes on for much longer I’ll have to see a dermatologist! That would be so embarrassing! Would you suggest a soap or cream for it if you can?

my cheeks were always flushed and people thought i wore blush since i was like ten but recently my skin has become redder and you can see dots that look like pimples but its not. and my skin is grainy so i use face scrubs and it makes it soft but my skin still looks blotchy uneven and i even have some veins under my nose. i went to the dermatologist but he was a complete jerk and in thirty seconds said it was acne and prescribed something but it just aggravated it. almost anything makes my skin too dry and i get red flare ups. i dont get it EVERYONE in my family has PERFECT skin, no acne, sun spots, pores and my skin is all messed up. also im 19 and latino (mixed indian, spanish, and french) and i thought it only occurred to older anglo people…i am light skinned and burn then tan but not light enough to look anglo so im kind of confused…what do you all think?

Ok, I am a 17 year old. I have had acne since I was about 12 and have been on many acne meds (Retin A, Ziana…etc). My face tends to get really, really red. It feels very hot to the touch and looks red all over, with emphasis on my cheeks, especially when embarrassed. It gets so bad that some are my friends are like "You’re almost purple!" Which tends to get really annoying…I also take hot showers so this might contribute to the redness. I have a dermatologist, but she hasn’t said anything even when I told her about the redness, but I will bring it up the next time I see her. If you have any suggestions to help with redness, please tell me.

I get pimples usually around the time of my period, but on my cheeks is always red and it looks like i have acne, BUT my skin in the area is always smooth, the redness never breaks the skin like normal pimples. the red acne looking things don’t hurt, it’s just there. been there since I was 14. I’ve tried looking for answers on google, but nothing comes up, could it be rosacea.. I totally spelt that wrong hahaha

Okay, so I was diagnosed with ‘mild’ acne (according to my GP) about 3 years ago. I was put on various treatments, and eventually, I was put on oxytetracycline tablets and isotrex cream. This cleared up my face. I stopped taking everything, and in the past couple of weeks spots have appeared. Now, am wondering if it’s acne, or, because ever since I was little, I’ve had a reddish pink complexion on my face, whether it’s rosacea? I mean, I’ve been to see a dermatologist who agreed with my GP in saying that I had/have a mild form of acne, but am wondering why my face is always red? Could it be that I have a mild form of acne, and my natural facial colouring is red? Wouldn’t a dermatologist have said whether it was either acne or rosacea?

Anyone know?
Forgot to say, I’m fair skinned (burn easily), blue eyes, blonde hair. My scalp is a pinkish red as well… always has been.
Oh, and the redness isn’t like… in certain parts i.e. my cheeks and and forehead… it’s the whole of my face. and my ears.
also, i’ve read that acne medicines can help with rosacea… if that’s the case, wouldn’t the redness have calmed down, if it was rosacea?

I have slight acne on my forehead and chin, and I have rosacea on my cheeks. Nothing that I’ve tried works because it either leaves my forehead too greasy or my cheeks too dry.
I also have a lot acne scars that i would love to get rid of.
I dont like makeup… i’m looking for a cleanser or something that will clear my skin up, not just cover the problems.

I have some on my cheeks and one on my nose. I’d like to know some ways. Preferrably natural remedies I can make at home. All the way to store products that are no more than
