Answer 1

As long as there is no infection and the spots aren't deep indentations, they will probably fade with time. Meanwhile, try not to do that anymore, and treat your skin well. Since you have acne, you might want to look into some products that take care of your skin and help prevent zits.

Answer 2

You didn't ruin your face - but take care of your skin from now on. No chemicals, no picking, keep it clean. Here's a way to help those scars heal...

2 teaspoons oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon clear oil (for example: sunflower, olive, jojoba, hemp)
Natural soap

Mix the ingredients together in a dish. Warm your skin and open pores with warm compresses. Use a natural soap to soap your skin. Pour the ingredients into your soapy hands and apply to your soapy face. Rub in gently, adding water to keep the mixture from drying out. The goal is to remove dead skin cells, not the living ones. Rinse. Finish with a couple of drops of clear oil applied to all normally dry areas on your skin

Just do this a couple of times a week. You'll notice a huge improvement right away. But subsequent uses will only remove a tiny bit more of the scarring each time.

Keep the blemishes from drying out so they don't re-scab with a tiny dot of vegetable oil after you are done washing.

Answer 3

you could also try a whitening cream like Philosophy's On A Clear Day H2O2. I use this cream and it contains hydrogen peroxide which whiten skin and prevent future acne breakouts
