how to remove body acne scars - #20275

Ayush

I am dealing with these really annoying body acne scars on my back and shoulders, and it’s seriously making me feel self-conscious. Like, I tried so many products, but nothing seems to work! I had this awful breakout a few months ago after a long trip, and now I’m left with all these marks that just won’t fade. I didn’t use sunscreen, thinking I could just tan a little, but now I’m regretting those decisions big time! I keep searching for ways on how to remove body acne scars but end up feeling overwhelmed by all the options. I’ve seen some suggestions about chemical peels and microneedling, but those feel a bit scary, right? Are there any home remedies or treatments you guys recommend for how to remove body acne scars that are actually effective? Like, I want something that doesn’t take forever and isn’t crazy expensive. Another thing, I've heard about some creams with retinol or vitamin C, but do they really help with body acne scars or are they more of a face thing? Just feeling kinda lost and any help would be super appreciated!
