If they're not showing significalt signs of fading, a dermatologist can refer you to a specialist who can fade them with laser treatments. They're expensive ($250 a session) but they work for nearly everyone. Another downside- they're painful.


Another less expensive (and painful) route would be to use a scar-fading kit. I know Neutrogena and Clearasil both have them. You can buy them anywhere. And they won't set you back more than $25-30 or so.


A third option is to moisturize often (to reduce irritation) and, if it doesn't burn, use a salicylic acid acne spot treatment on your scars. I've heard it helps reduce scarring and fades them faster. Don't know if it's all in my head, but it's seemed to work for me. Worth a shot, right?


Also, a dab of foundation or concealer, whatever works better for your skin, can help blend in scars with the rest of your face & make them look more even.


Lastly, keep in mind that this is something you notice a LOT more than other people do. Nearly everyone has acne at some point. And most of those people will end up with scars. It's something a lot of us have to deal with and it's not that big of a problem.


I hope I helped, & sorry its so long!

OK, You could always wax it off daily but it's SUCH A PAIN! So I advise you not to. I think you should buy a hair-bleecher, it will make your peach-fuzz not so dark. It will turn it white or a skin color. It depends on how much you put it, because my friend did it and it worked for her, so that's how I know 'case you were wonderin'. Well anyway, you could probably purchase it at a drug store or Walmart. Good luck with that & hope I helped! :}
