Okay, when I was younger I used to get body acne on my back. Since then I've been using a really great cleanser and it's been keeping my back looking great. However, I have a lot scars left over from my past acne that I'm afraid is visable. How do I get rid of or cover up these scars so I can be more confident showing off my back?
Also, I have large pores on my face that I want to minimize. Is there any topical moisturizers or treatments available for that type of thing, something preferably home-based?
Thanks!

My boyfriend had bad acne on his back and he got rid of it and now has lots of scars. He takes his shirt off when he's alone and outside in the sun and tans. It makes them blend in and almost go away. That's the best you could do. Exfoliating opens pores so you don't want to do that.

You might try dry skin brushing. It really exfoliates, and is supposed to help rebuild the collagen under the skin. I've done it on some minor scars and they were reduced.

not sure about the pores on your face..but i know that on your back if you can find it..there is a lotion called Corn huskers lotion (i think you can get it at walmart or some place like that) that will help with the scars.
Good luck.
