MILK . It does NOT do a body good.

People don't believe my face and skin when they see it but when i was small i had beautiful skin.
As I got older i started drinking an enormous amount of milk.
I thought hrmm... Look at all of these gorgeous people in the milk commercials with there beautiful looking physic and skin.
5 Years later without knowing the cause my skin was slowly becoming scared and older looking.

The problem is what most people don't know is that whole milk is not good for allot of young adults to consume much amounts of as they get older.

Vitamin D and calcium supplements are much better.

Sorry for the rant but the proof is staring me right in the face.

I think you should wear beaters more often. It'll boost your confidence. I know you're self-conscious about it, but just don't worry about it. If people ask, just say it's acne scarring, and that's it.

I don't know about the cream. It'll boost your confidence if you stop using it though.

I use honey or I break open the vitamin E gels and put that on the scar
It worked really well for a burn scar I had on my knee from glassblowing.

Have you tried St. Ives Apricot scrub?

Well, honestly the most cost effective would be to go to a Dermatologist and let them tell you the best treatment method, because one visit is usually under $100, and you could easily spend more than that buying all of these "miracle cures" that end up not working. They will probably recommend a laser treatment on your face.
One lotion though that I know does work for clearing up your face and helping with old acne facial scars is MaMa Lotion. I have been using it for only a week and it has already started fading my old marks that the breakouts leave behind. I have a few inset scars (small holes) from old breakouts as well and it has started to help those already, after only a week! I have read hundreds of reviews and everyone says this has worked for them too. It isn't very expensive, either. About $40 a bottle. I
bought a sample on Ebay though, for only $15. I will be buying a bottle when the sample runs out.

The only downside is it does cause your skin to flake and peel quite a bit in the beginning, but that is how it works, by shedding the bad layers of your skin.

The scar treatments that are currently available include:

Collagen injection. Collagen, a normal substance of the body, is injected under the skin to "stretch" and "fill out" certain types of superficial and deep soft scars. Collagen treatment usually does not work as well for ice-pick scars and keloids. Collagen derived from cows or other non-human sources cannot be used in people with autoimmune diseases. Human collagen or fascia is helpful for those allergic to cow-derived collagen. Cosmetic benefit from collagen injection usually lasts 3 to 6 months. Additional collagen injections to maintain the cosmetic benefit are done at additional cost.

Autologous fat transfer. Fat is taken from another site on your own body and prepared for injection into your skin. The fat is injected beneath the surface of the skin to elevate depressed scars. This method of autologous (from your own body) fat transfer is usually used to correct deep contour defects caused by scarring from nodulocystic acne. Because the fat is reabsorbed into the skin over a period of 6 to 18 months, the procedure usually must be repeated. Longer lasting results may be achieved with multiple fat-transfer procedures.

Dermabrasion. This is thought to be the most effective treatment for acne scars. Under local anesthetic, a high-speed brush or fraise used to remove surface skin and alter the contour of scars. Superficial scars may be removed altogether, and deeper scars may be reduced in depth. Dermabrasion does not work for all kinds of scars; for example, it may make ice-pick scars more noticeable if the scars are wider under the skin than at the surface. In darker-skinned people, dermabrasion may cause changes in pigmentation that require additional treatment.

Microdermabrasion. This new technique is a surface form of dermabrasion. Rather than a high-speed brush, microdermabrasion uses aluminum oxide crystals passing through a vacuum tube to remove surface skin. Only the very surface cells of the skin are removed, so no additional wound is created. Multiple procedures are often required but scars may not be significantly improved.

Laser Treatment. Lasers of various wavelength and intensity may be used to recontour scar tissue and reduce the redness of skin around healed acne lesions. The type of laser used is determined by the results that the laser treatment aims to accomplish. Tissue may actually be removed with more powerful instruments such as the carbon dioxide laser. In some cases, a single treatment is all that will be necessary to achieve permanent results. Because the skin absorbs powerful bursts of energy from the laser, there may be post-treatment redness for several months.

Skin Surgery. Some ice-pick scars may be removed by "punch" excision of each individual scar. In this procedure each scar is excised down to the layer of subcutaneous fat; the resulting hole in the skin may be repaired with sutures or with a small skin graft. Subcision is a technique in which a surgical probe is used to lift the scar tissue away from unscarred skin, thus elevating a depressed scar.

Skin grafting may be necessary under certain conditions—for example, sometimes dermabrasion unroofs massive and extensive tunnels (also called sinus tracts) caused by inflammatory reaction to sebum and bacteria in sebaceous follicles. Skin grafting may be needed to close the defect of the unroofed sinus tracts.

Treatment of keloids. Surgical removal is seldom if ever used to treat keloids. A person whose skin has a tendency to form keloids from acne damage may also form keloids in response to skin surgery. Sometimes keloids are treated by injecting steroid drugs into the skin around the keloid. Topical retinoic acid may be applied directly on the keloid. In some cases the best treatment for keloids in a highly susceptible person is no treatment at all.

I second SNN's comment: Go to the derm, more than one if necessary, and do what they say.

In the meantime, tell everyone they're battle scars.

I use Even better skin tone corrector from Clinique. Have been using them for about a month and half and my acne scars are not visible as much as before. I really recommend it.
