Acne isn’t fun. Unless you’re one of those genetically gifted freaks who has never had a bad skin day in their entire lives, almost everyone has had to endure the discomfort and indignity of having a face covered in oozing, inflamed pustules.
For most of us, acne plagued the hormonal and emotional No Man’s Land phase of our lives otherwise known as puberty, and blessedly, for some people, that’s where acne’s trauma ends.
However, for many people, acne can leave more than just mental and emotional scars. This is why there are so many websites dedicated to answering the question of how to get rid of acne scars. There are also products and treatments for the fast removal of acne scars, as well as a good number of home remedies for acne scars.
How Acne Scars Happen
Acne can develop when the pores in your skin get plugged up by sebum (oil that the body produces naturally), dead skin cells, or dirt. Bacteria can grow here, sometimes causing the skin to get inflamed, and pus can collect around the area. In the most severe kinds of acne, red bumps and pus-filled cysts can form, damaging the skin. Different kinds of scars can result from the damage the pustules, pimples, and cysts that acne can wreak; keloid scars, discoloration, depressed areas on the skin, or raised lesions.
Some people are more prone to scarring than others, but usually, to prevent scarring from becoming permanent, problem spots should be identified and treated early so that the skin repairs itself better, making it less likely for scars to develop in the first place.
How to Get Rid of Acne Scars
Of course, sometimes, no matter how hard you work to keep scars from forming, they can still show up. Over time, scars can fade and become less visible. This is because as skin renews itself, old, damaged tissues are replaced by newer, healthy skin cells. Most of the time though, scars won’t disappear completely on their own. If you want fast removal of acne scars, there are a lot of different treatments available.
A lot of topical creams and serums can kick-start your body’s natural healing and skin renewal processes so that your scars fade more quickly. However, since scar tissue is mostly dead, damaged skin, treatments like dermabrasion or microdermabrasion, laser therapy, chemical peels, and surgical therapies like subcision are best for fast removal of acne scars.
Different Forms of Acne Scar Treatments
Dermabrasion and microdermabrasion both involve exfoliation; the removal of the damaged skin through abrasion: by simply scrubbing the dead skin away. The difference between the two kinds of exfoliation is that microdermabrasion is gentler and not as invasive. These treatments work even on scars that had formed a long time ago.
Laser resurfacing therapy, on the other hand, softens scar tissue by actually wounding skin a little using intense, microscopic light pulses. The body heals the microthermally wounded areas, repairing the scarred tissue as well, making the scars look a whole lot better than before.
Chemical peels use a solution that makes the top layer of the skin blister and peel off so that the skin that the body regenerates is much smoother and less scarred and wrinkled.
Subcision is a treatment best used for the really deep kinds of acne scars that leave depressions in the skin. With this surgical treatment, skin in the affected area is separated from the scar tissue, which lets the blood pool under the area and allows the skin to grow more level. Afterwards, other treatments, like the ones listed above will smooth out the scar tissue itself and even out the skin color.
Home Remedies for Acne Scars
The treatments listed above are great for the fast removal of acne scars, but they can be costly and uncomfortable. If you want to save some money and trouble, try some do-it-yourself exfoliation and skin renewal recipes.
One way to make acne scars look less visible is to lighten them using lemon juice. If you don’t have lemons, other kinds of citrus work too, but this works best with very sour kinds of citrus fruits. Simply apply the juice over the scars and let it stand for a few minutes, then wash it off.
Try mixing and matching fruits and vegetables to place on your face. Those rich in vitamin A, like tomatoes for example, aren’t just good to eat, but by combining pureed tomatoes with pureed cucumber and applying the mixture to your face for five to thirty minutes, you can soothe and tighten your skin, prevent excess sebum production, and renew damaged skin. Just be sure to wash your face afterwards, so you won’t smell like a pasta dish.
These home remedies for acne scars won’t show results as dramatic as conventional treatments, although if you want to figure out how to get rid of acne scars, using recipes like these frequently can really help make the fast removal of acne scars even faster. Try using them in combination with more conventional treatments for better results and healthier skin.

ok this is something i heard about lemon juice. try drinking it and putting it on your face and just use it like a toner. IDK if this works though, I havent gotten around to trying it. This is for what I know about acne scars as in the discolorations. And dont use a scrub because some are used to draw the oil out of your face, making acne
Yea I tryed that but I didn’tc anything about drinking it. But what do you do because mines are coming back and I don’t what I’m suppose to do again. Please replie
THIS WORKS!!! ok so put equal amounts of olive oil, honey, and lemon juice into a small bowl and mix well. slather onto face and leave it on for 30-60 minutes. afterwords, moisturize with aloe vera and your scars will be noticably faded in the morning!!
hey ginny,does it actually work.my daughter she is 10 years old and she has face marks on her face and she looks ugly with them she doesnt want them we have been trying stuff but they dont work.so if i try this does it actually go away in the morning or do you have to keep doing it we want it off fast
I NEED HELP! I got acne marks all over my back
!!
And i need them off!!!! I seriously dont know
How to get them off
hi ginny. how do you apply it to the face? with a cotton call or fingers?
does this actually work? ive heard so much about coco powder lemon juice (i tried lemon juice and it was quite painful). how long does it take to see results? and how do you apply it? just with your fingers? thank you!
Its a proven fact that your pores don’t actually ‘open’ and ‘close’ or tighten if that’s what you want to call it, so if anyone tells you that hot water will open and cucumber will tighten is wrong, don’t believe it….. here read this
http://askville.amazon.com/pores-face-open-close/AnswerViewer.do?requestId=6939979
Seriously?? Just let people believe what they want to believe and it can work for anybody wether their skin does “open”, “close”, or “tighten”. Leave it be.
I have quite a few things that put down swelling and fade scars that work wonders! 1st: I put Olive oil on my imperfections and then wash it with a towel off 2nd: I put honey on them and wash it off 3rd: I put egg white on them 4th: i rub an ice cube to put down swelling and redness. And at night I get 2 tsp. of honey and milk then i put it on my face and leave it for 15 mins. and IT WORKS!
Does this really work? And how long do you keep the olive oil, honey, and egg whites on your face?
i want to ask if we have to do all these things together at one time or one by one at anytime and we have to leave these on them for how long ??
I have tried clean and clear advantage mark treatment.. It worked Wonders! The scar faded quickly but it is still there I tried using ice and I notice a little difference but I want something that will work quick, I have not tried lemon juice yet but that is my next step.

U can try melas cream…it realy works
Ok, so I’m almost 15. I’ve suffered from moderate-severe acne since age 11. I’ve honestly thought about committing suicide because I get made fun of for my acne. I’m fed up with it, and I want to do something about it… can anyone, please help me. Email me?
kaila. I also had acne. I started to break-out when I was 12. I asked my doctor about an acne treatment and she recommended Clindamycin phosphate topical lotion and Differin, which is a gel. After one month I got less pimples. But the problem is that now I have acne marks. I have been using these products for 2 months and they are great. Use the lotion day and night. The gel only night. When you first start using them, u see an increase of acne, because the treatment works inside your skin but it is all worth it. I f you have any question just reply. These things really work, trust me.
im 19 and have suffered from severe acne most of my teenage life. its horrible and really break down your self esteem. i tried everything from expensive face washes to natural remedies nothing worked. then i went to the doctor and got pills called oretane a generic version of accutane. within the first week i saw significant difference. ive been on it for 4 weeks and all my acne is gone and scars are starting to fade it is amazing. the pills are a bit expensive but definately worth every cent. there are some discomforts like extreme dryness of the skin and lips and peeling in the face which looks terrible but a good moisturiser helped with that and it only lasted a week or 2. sun bloc is very important as your skin gets very sensitive. i have 2 weeks left in my course of treatment (treatment is usually 6months but many people stop after about 3 months in severe cases or in my case 2 months.) my skin now looks clearer softer and has a more natural glow. i only wash my face with a mild cleaser and moisturise. try it its really worth it . suicide its not the answer there are a lot of treatments out there that are really great. i was dead set against the pills but now i regret not startiin earlier. and the acne will also go away as your hormonal changes come to a end. just hang in there and try it it will really change your life. it changed mine. feel free to mail me anytime
for hw many months we have to take this pills.after the course of these pills will acne be back on my face.
how to use pills plllz tell me????
Accutane! worked for me, only thing that did and I love it!
Kaila,
Have you tried talking to a dermatologist? I’m 19 and I’ve always had bad acne too. I tried pretty much everything you can buy at the drugstore and none of it really worked for more than a few weeks until I got perscription creams and even pills for my skin. They worked miracles for me. Also I know if your acne is sever enough the dermatologist will consider putting you on a treatment called accutane. It’s definitely worth looking into or talking to your doctor about if your skin problems are affecting you mentally and emotionally to that level.
Also, try getting more excercise, drinking lots of water, and eating lots of fruits that are high in antioxidants. Its not a cure but being healthier will make your skin brighter and make you feel better too.
I’m really sorry that you get made fun of for your skin and that you feel like committing suicide because of it. I know that its not easy. Nothing is easy when your 15. I felt awful when my skin was at its worst, and everyone would tell me it wasn’t that big of a deal. I understand that it is a big deal and when when you feel that bad about how you look you’re not just being vain. I know it sucks. But I want you to know that it gets better someday. You’re skin won’t always be as bad as it is now. And even if it feels like the end of the world now, its not
I know it’s hard to be teased because of your skin because it’s happened to me so many times, but you’re going to be a better and stronger person than any of the people who make fun of you because of what you’re going through. Don’t let acne run your life. I am sure that there are people who love you, isn’t that something worth living for? Don’t give up.
accutane works to get rid of acne it will get rid of and prevent acne from coming back , topical creams for the scars
Kalia, don’t ever think about taking your own life, please. I’m older than you are and I still have acne and it still bothers me, but just remember that there are millions of other people who have acne, and some have it worse than you, even.
But never commit suicide, you’re young, you have so much to live for!
If you go to your local drug store and look for the power-cream wash, it’s oil free by neutrogena. It’s is for acne stress controll and it really does work! I used it for the first time while ago and I had mild acne and within 3-4 weeks,… GONE. Just like that. It’s great! I hope this helps!
Hey Kaila,
If your still suffering from acne,
You’ll need:
Cottons
Tweezers (Optional)
Apple cider vinegar
Tube of zap zit (Can get that from any local supermarket or pharmacy)
i’m also 15 and i suffered from extremely bad acne since the age of 10 due to hormonal probs and i used ALOT of different kind of acne medicines which didn’t work./: i felt the same way you do too until i found something tht actually worked wonders on my skin. i have very sensitive skin . First: i bust all the bumps that i could’ve bust on my face including blackheads. Secondly: i added apple cider vinegar to my face with a cotton ball after busting the bumps. (it will burn but you have to leave it until it stops burning) so for at least 5 minutes leave it on. Thirdly: wash your face with cold water and pat dry, Then put zap zit on effected areas. Do not rub in, let it sit until dry. and leave it on til morning you can wash it off with cold water. Hope this helps.<3
Clearasil Ultra pimples and marks fades scarring effectivly (: it is great. I’m going to try and use bicarbonate soda and lemon juice. Because some of Mine are stubborn. But I suggest clearasil ultra
To get rid of my pimples FAST I used Acne Free Terminator 10. It’s an orange tube, it has 10% benzoyl peroxide. I haven’t had a breakout since. I’m currently using Clearasil Acne + Mark face wash/mask and also a foaming Noxema wash. It worked great. I just started using lemon juice on my face. So far so good. I bought this all at Walmart. Good luck!
@jasmin What the
treatment that you used?
Kaila,
I’m sorry you are being teased at school sweetie. Family and friends who love you for who you are love you because you’re an amazing person, not because of your skin. I know in high school seems like a huge deal, but if someone treats you that bad you don’t want to be friends/date/or associate with them. They’re not worth your time. I was just like you in high school and now those guys wish they could date me. I have literally tired everything but the kitchen sink on my face. You need to find what is right for you. My friend tried accutane and it worked wonders. I didn’t find the right thing for me until a year ago. It is called Exposed and it’s an organic route, one that I hadn’t thought of trying. Its about $50 for the basic kit, but it lasts me about 3 months. There is a wash, toner, serum, acne buster and then a dermo cloth. My face has really cleared up and people comment on how soft my skin is and it has a glow because there aren’t any harsh products in the line. All I can say is it has to get worse to get better. Some other hints are try not to touch your face, don’t add extra oils, stay away from makeup if possible or maybe move to something mineral that wont clog pores and try not to pick at acne, I know it’s hard, but it will save your skin from scarring in the future. Also use a clean fresh wash cloth daily and change pillow cases or anything that touches your skin often. Stick to a schedule and do not break it. There are some good secrets and tips I’ve read here that sound helpful. I’ve always been told if you are in a jam and you need a zit downsized good old classic toothpaste overnight does wonders. I hope this helps, but if not it sounds like some others would sure like to help. Best of luck and hang in there you will find what is right for you!

I’m 15 and I’ll be 16 in July. I’ve always had like a pimple here and there but this year I’ve started to really get acne and scars from it. Safe to say I feel ugly and I just want them to go away. And I’m low on money so no medical procedures for me. Is there anything to help me at all? Please email me or something. I need help. Thank you!
Do you wear a lot of makeup? If you do then wash your face right when you get home & put mostruizer on. But you can try, squishing tomatoes & rubbing it on your face. Leave it on for about ten minutes, then wash it off. Oh when you rub it on use potatoes. (;
Lemon works really well! If you want to get rid of it quickly, you might want to try it more than once daily for about 15 minutes each time you wear it. It is okay it it itches; it means it is working. You can also use 2 teaspoons of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of water, I believe, for scrubbing your face, though gently; it can help you get rid of it and can work like microdermabrasion or whatever it is called.
It has been working for me and I’m almost rid of my marks (they were really dark, by the way). Another thing is to use 1 teaspoon (or regular spoon, of course!) of honey and 2 teaspoons of milk. It should be left on for about 20 or 15 minutes. You can also surf the web and videos for more ideas. Best of luck! *I put it again to make sure it went up.

I’ve bite by mosquito so I’ve stretch untill it become black spot in my arms n legs is the anything I can use to remove those am a african I’ve tried using other staff I think it doesn’t work on african it only works 4 white people
I am 19 light skin and have been suffering with acne since i was 19..my biggest mistake was to pick at blackheads i would pick at them one day and wake up with a huge inflamed zit the next day …i tried lemon with honey and that worked well my acne scars are fading and ive been using this remedy for. About 2 weeks..i have also tried lemon juice everyday for 15 minutes but all that did was irritate and make the spots brighter and more visible..i have heard that hydrogen peroxide works great but im kinda scared to try it
yes hydrogen peroxide could help u but it would be like taking a risk which u cant afford….i m of 13 and i was having many pimples when i squeez them it become an dark acne like marks when i consulted my doctor he gave me the advice to use CLARINA ANTI-ACNE CREAM OF HIMALAYA and trust me it made my acne look lighter but it had not removed it completely yet i have been using it since 3-4 months try to use it as it does not any other effect
It some what works but it’s not the best solution but it leaves likes little tiny spots.It works to clean the inside of the zit but it doesn’t get rid of the pimple mark…
Um … what do you guys mean by ‘honey’? The one in the bear or a different type?
- I’ve had acne since I was 12 (I’m thirteen now) because I used make up. But then I stopped. Now I barely have anymore big pimples but still have my acne scars. & I popped my pimples when they were white but then I wiped the puss away & washed my face with Dove. Dove works really good, too! But yeah, I want to try the honey & lemon remedy but I don’t understand what ‘honey’ to use?
A newer theory about acne is that it’s caused by increased testosterone. That doesn’t mean that your extra aggressive or manly, it just means an increase in hormone production; a new drug came out along with the idea, called Spironalactone that’s kinda cheap and WORKS! I’m 15 and I’ve had cystic acne since I was 10, so I’ve tried everything but accutane and worked with multiple dermatologists; finally I tried a mixture of spironalactone and tazorac, the strongest retin-a topical, and olay moisturizer (i didn’t trust it at first either, OIL on my already oily face? but trust me, it just makes your skin normally hydrated instead of dry from the tazorac) and in five months my acne has nearly disappeared! I still have scars from years of picking, but instead of a face of pimples, I now have only a couple whiteheads around my period. Plus, the tazorac got rid of all my blackheads, goodbye black spots! I haven’t been able to scrub my skin for five years because it hurt my pimples and my skin was so pitted, but for the first time I understand what it’s like to wash smooth skin! I’ll never take that smooth feeling for granted again, thanks to Spironalactone. It’s safer than accutane and it works! Just talk to your doctors about it, trust me. It takes time but the end result is so worth it.
Im 16 and have had acne on and off since about 12 or 13. Ive always found a way to get rid of acne its just the scars that simply won’t go away! Ive been so upset especially since im a sort of light brown. I hate going to school with dark spots on my face. Especially on my nose. Does anyone know any acne scar treatments that can visibly fade the dark spots?
That can visibly fade them overnight is what i had meant.
I have darker skin and have acne marks that just won’t go away. I can’t seem to find a homemade remedy that will help and i don’t want to buy something from the store. Could someone please give me some advice???
I have moderate-severe acne and i have dark skin. I started breaking out when I was about 11. It first started with big pimples that became inflamed, red and lots of pus (disgusting). My doctor then gave me Eracne and Differin (Eracne in the morning and Differin in the night). This routine was working well for the first few months but then my skin became immune to the medications. I got worse and then my mum got me Proactiv. It worked wonders at first and i has controlled my acne to this day. Sometimes i have really bad zitty days and i get heaps of ugly scars but i use a lemon/honey mask which really lightened the scars. If you suffer from acne; dont’ worry, it will go away.
Don’t just leave your pimples;
Clean them: remove the pus because inside the pus is germs and you don’t want to leave germs in your skin.
Treat them: use a cleanser (containing Salicylic Acid) and exfoliate with a good scrub (St. Ives Apricot Scrub) about twice a week, then use a toner and finally apply and lotion containing Benzoyl Peroxide.
Apply a lemon and chickpea flour mask every 2nd day if possible or twice a week is sufficient.
Always clean the pus out of the pimple.
you shouldnt use scrubs and if you break your pimples it will turn them into scars
To get rid of acne overnight wipe your face with parrell it kill 99% of germs. and no shut your face im not gonna email you cuz im cool like that luv ya….
try applying turmeric powder the ones which are used specially for the face.everymornig drink 2 cups of water with an empty stomach. apply cinnamon powder with rose water over night it really works.there is one more IMPORTANT THING! DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE! acne can spread if the pus touches the other part of your skin.drink plenty of juice items fresh. lemon juice is the best.eat a couple of pieces of garlic a day and apply garlic, lemon juice and cucumber juice to your face
I HAVE ACNE! I can’t get rid of it the egg whites ,lemon, and hydrogen peroxide worked, but Clean&Clear worked the best! I got it at Target!
use proactiv. It really does do what it says in the infomercials! but i have scars now. I’m afraid to try all the home remedies because I have VERY sensitive skin. IDK what to do “/
hi… i’m just fed up of trying everything. will you believe my mum has spent 10,000 only on my products and all in vain. nothing work out. I had even used Shahnaz Hussain products but I noticed that my skin has become worst. i have so mush acne and reddish on my face. I just hate seeing my face with so many scars. I don’t even feel like going out. Please help me out. I no more want my parents to spend their money on me just because of my skin koz nothing worked out.
Proactiv works wonders for removing pimples if you use it faithfully, although it can dry out your skin really bad if you have sensitive skin. But even though it takes away the pimples, it leaves acne scars. There is an all natural medication called VitaClear, made from the makers of proactive that you take once a day. I have been using it for about 3 weeks and I am really happy with the results. Although I still have acne scars, they are getting less noticeable and my face feels so much smoother and healthier! I am also going to try the lemon/honey mask to cure the remaining scars.
Hi! I am a 12 year old girl who has had acne for about the past two-ish years. I have struggled with acne like no other, and hate it. I have done literally everything a person can do to prevent and get rid of acne. Here’s the cool part. It’s finally starting to go away!! Now not everybody has the same skin and not everything will work on everybody, trust me I found that out the hard way. But, I will tell you what I have done to help mine and hopefully be an inspiration for you. Okay, so first I got this three step system that is just like proactive, just alot less inexpensive. I found it, surprisingly, at the dollar store. What you have to make sure is that there is a cleanser, toner and a moisturizer. You will follow the directions exactly how they are. Second, I got the St. Ives exfoliating apricot scrub. I use this for four days, Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. I use this it the afternoon, usually in the shower. Finally I drink TONS of water, and this helps alot! Well thats all I have to say and I hope I helped somebody out there be size I know how hard it is to have to deal with it. Thanks for reading!!
Lemon juice works affectively but one day it burned my skin really badly. I want to use an acne reducing cream but I can’t trust any brand as in I don’t have such ideas about them. I would like u to suggest me with some best brands.
I’ve also tried using cucumber juice on the effective area but instead of making it invisible it made my skin look dull and dark.
Lemon does work well. Apply it regularly, and the marks start fading away. Another way to treat pimples is to apply toothpaste (non-gel) on the inflamed area and leave it on for the night. Wash it off in the morning. It helps as it cools the skin and removes oil and dirt and dead cells. You should also drink a LOT of water, and apply an icepack on the pimple, to get rid of it.
Have a happy, pimple free face!

I use to have horrible back acne, & I picked. Same with my chest. My friend’s mom told me if you rub melaleuca on the scars, it’s get them away in less then a week. I just tried it now.

The lemon juice on acne scars does NOT work. I’ve tried it many times using it 1-2 times a day and all it did was make it worse. It stings really bad and is a mess. I do not recommend it.
How? Most of the people say that lemon juice is the best and you say the opposite. Liar !!!
after goin tru all diz i guess d acne free tool kit is the best. nut pls where in Nigeria jos precisely can i buy one of it mine is nt dat bad but i need to get rid of the dark spots would b grate if i receive an ans ASAP tnxx.
I am a teenager and recently got a pimple in between my eyebrows. Unfortunately I popped it. After about a week of scabs it is clearing up and there is only a thin layer of scab left. However I can see that it will scar underneath. I was wondering if you can tell me any way of preventing this or getting rid of it ASAP? It’d be great to receive an answer! Thanks for your time!
Its good to know that I’m not the only one with acne problems
What had worked wonders on my skin was drinking a ton of water. No, it does not work straight away but after about two-three weeks I promise you they will be gone. That’s how it was for me, really. I had used a face wash that I bought at Wallmart, find one that is suitable for your type of skin. I do this over summer vacation, giving my skin enough time to heal properly before school starts. I do wear makeup such as powders on my face when school starts but as long as you continues to wash your face you’ll be fine.
I have had acne for years. I started breaking out when I was 12 years old and I am now 30. I struggled all these years with bad acne. I have tried almost everything and I have just started using a soap I got at whole foods called African Black Soap and my skin has never looked better! It is very drying so you need to follow up with a great moisturizer. I hope you like the soap as much as I do!
I am a 30-year old African American women who has suffered from cystic acne for the past 6 years. I have tried every type of OTC acne medication that you can try and I have also tried prescription medications. I have NEVER been the type that likes wear make-up, I always had natural beauty…just a lip gloss and I was good to go. But now I have dark marks all over my face from the cystic acne erupting whether it was intentional or not. My confidence is really bothered by my current acne situation. I am going to be getting married in the next 6 months and I need some real help. I do not have insurance to go to the dermatologist. Can someone give me some advice that has seen actually results from any products or remedies that they have actually used.
Sincerely,
Dreaming to be a make-up FREE bride!!!
