I have had moderate acne that has recently settled down after I started taking Epiduo. While my skin is noticeably clearer, i still have little red dots where my acne once was. I was told these were scars, and eventually they started to go away. However, sometimes (because of allergies, dry skin, sunburn, etc.) my face will become itchy, red and these scars will flare up. What is causing this and how can I get rid of it?

Okay, foolishly I did not listen to advice when I was a young acne-prone girl and went ahead to pick at my facial pimples because I could not stand them. Unfortunately, as a consequence I have gotten numerous acne scars and blemishes (dark circular pigmentation-little brown spots along my chin and cheeks [they are not raised, my skin is otherwise smooth save for the discoloration], I have a relatively tan complexion). Is there any way to get rid of them, or at least make them appear less noticeable(preferably a relatively cheap, at home-convenient solution, or am I doomed to working towards the day until I can afford a medical/laser treatment?)
I’ve heard of chemical peels, mederma, scarzone…do those really work-especially since my skin problem is obviously affected by something deeper then the superficial layers of my epidermis?
All suggestions welcome!
