Red skin, acne scars. Help needed!

Hello, my skin always was prone to breaking out. But now I notice it's red and scarred. What can I do to make it back to normal skin colour? Would skin lightening cream work? I tried natural aloe and the Clinique redness cream but it's not doing so much. Thanks!

I have red scars from a skin disorder, and they don't eventually fade as people think. I've tried aloe vera cream, coconut oil, and so forth.

But there is something that might be promising which is Kelocote Scar Gel - expensive but may give it a go. I haven't tried skin lightening cream but that might be a cheaper solution. Just check the side effects.

In my opinion, you should avoid using any new cream or cosmetic on your face. Your skin is oily in nature, I guess. So you can try some home remedies like tea tree oil. Banana peel also works well. Use any mild water-based moisturizer or somethin like aloe vera gel. Use sunscreen when go out in the sun. But if it doesn't work, visit a dermatologist.
