When ever I get pimple on my face I squeeze it. But now I have lot of marks on my face. What is the treatment for it. Please suggest me some cream.

Question

Hello lybrate-user. Squeezing pimples cause more inflammation and pigmentation and scaring. You first need to control the infection and sebum production. Once the acne is under control then you can take care of pigmentation and scars with creams, peels, dermaabrasion etc. Kindly consult a certified Dermatologist.

Hello. The scars and the pigmentation on the face are treatable. It's better to get it examined first so that we can identify the type of skin, scars and if they are hyper pigmented, atrophic or ice pick scars. The treatment are of various kind like ranging from simple scrubs and mild peels for the face to the major interventions such as laser therapy, dermaroller, subcision or peeling. These depend on the type of the scars and which kind you opt for. You can consult me online or text me with pictures for further details. skin scars
