acne scar removal cream for oily skin - #18618
I am dealing with super frustrating acne scars on my face and just can’t seem to find the right acne scar removal cream for oily skin that wouldn’t make things worse. Like, last year I had this horrible breakout, it felt neverending. Once that cleared up, I was left with these dark spots and pitted scars, which are even more annoying than the acne itself! I’ve tried a couple of over-the-counter products, but they either dried my skin out or didn’t seem to do anything. I read somewhere that some acne scar removal creams can make oily skin feel like an oil slick, ugh! And I really don’t want to end up with a product that just clogs my pores again. I asked my dermatologist for some help, but it felt like they rushed me through the appointment. Just wondering, is there a specific acne scar removal cream for oily skin that actually works? I’ve heard of some ingredients like salicylic acid being good but also read mixed reviews. It’s like, do I need to think about chemical exfoliants or go for a natural approach? Anyone have experiences with this? What has actually worked, or should I be looking at a more professional treatment? Really hoping to find something that’s effective and won’t make my skin freak out again.
