They're quite bad :frown: I was told it wasn't likely they'd fade completely. I've not had a proper bout of acne now for about 3 years, the occasional spot breakout, but nothing out of the ordinary or acne like, and the scars are still as red as they were then.

I've naturally got very pale skin too which makes them all the more noticeable. I also seem to scar very easily. I still have a scar from a wasp sting three years ago, and any spot I get now leaves a red mark for months afterwards.

I'm just unlucky I guess *shrugs*


Im very pale too but have been suffering with spots since I was about 12, im now 19, i still get them frequently but, being a girl, i tend to get them before im due and they stay red for months before beginning to fade...i just want to get to the point where they stop so that my skin can heal properly and i can go back to having the beautiful pale skin i used to have, with freckles too. Ive given up on medication, dont see the problem anymore.
