Long-term acne with marks, pigmentation, and open pores usually needs a combination of gentle daily care and medical treatment. A dermatologist may prescribe retinoids, mild chemical peels, or laser options to safely improve scars and pigmentation while controlling new breakouts. Please consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

One question Is your period regular?
First, addressing hyperpigmentation and acne scars often requires a multifaceted approach. Using a topical retinoid like retinol or prescription-strength tretinoin can promote cell turnover and encourage new cell growth, which aids in fading scars and evening out skin tone. However, it’s important to use sunscreen daily, as retinoids can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. In addition, incorporating vitamin C serum in the morning helps brighten the complexion and provides antioxidant protection. A gentle exfoliating treatment once or twice a week with products containing alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) like glycolic acid can help remove dead skin cells and improve skin texture. However, limit use to avoid over-exfoliation, which can aggravate your skin.
For open pores and uneven texture, niacinamide can be beneficial by decreasing sebum production and improving skin barrier function. Meanwhile, treatments like microneedling or chemical peels performed by a dermatologist may provide substantial improvement in scars and texture but always assess whether these options align with your tolerance and skin type. To avoid new acne formation, a salicylic acid-based cleanser can help unclog pores and reduce inflammation. However, if breakouts persist or worsen, a topical antibiotic or benzoyl peroxide can be effective to target acne-causing bacteria.
Remember, building a consistent routine over several months is key, and sudden changes can exacerbate conditions. Keep a balanced diet, staying hydrated and managing stress also plays a role in supporting skin health. Before starting any treatment, consulting with a dermatologist is advisable especially for prescription medications and procedures to tailor the plan specifically to the needs of your skin type. This ensures safety and minimizes the risk of adverse effects.
