I've been under a lot of stress lately due to work, so painful, pus-filled pimples have started popping up one by one on my chin and around my mouth. At first, I thought it would subside quickly, but When one disappears, another appears next to it... Since it keeps repeating like this, I'm afraid to even touch it now.
My biggest concern is the patchy redness and dark scars left behind after the acne has passed. Even if I try to cover it up with makeup, it doesn't cover up well, Actually, I'm embarrassed to take off my mask these days because I'm worried it might irritate my skin.
I've tried using skincare products specifically for troubled skin for home care, but, It seemed like it was only temporary and not a fundamental solution. I wonder if I should consistently get acne extractions and anti-inflammatory injections at the dermatology clinic, Or I am wondering if I should get a laser treatment that is effective for scar improvement. If you, like me, have suffered from adult acne and scars for a long time and have seen results with any skincare routines or treatments, please share them!
