NO !!! leave the scar alone and only put scar treatment or lightening scar cream on {{neosporin]] works good. ive had a pimple scar be4 and ive tried toothpaste and it burned my skin off ! do not do it ! put nothing on except neosporin or such for a wk and it will slowly fade away :]

no

no. try a skin lightening lotion. neutragena makes a good one.

no don't try it it could only give a bad reaction with your skin and give you more acne and scars

It dries pimples but doesnt cure them.

Put toothpaste on your pimple before you go to bed, should help reduce swelling overnight. Make sure it is the paste not the gel. One of the most popular acne home remedies.Log on to http://tipsfromruby-acne.blogspot.com/ for a few home made tips to heal acne .

Personally, ive read alot on acne scars as i have quite a few left over too. What ive heard to do is apply acv(apple cider vinegar, u can buy it at ur grocery store for under 2 bucks) and mix it half and half with warm water. Then dab the diluted acv with a cotton ball and apply it on your scar. Also i have heard that drinking it is great too but it might taste a bit sour :P . Also another great thing to do is go make an appointment with your dermatologist and get her/him to prescribe u a tropical gel called "retin a micro". As ive heard and read, u need to apply just a lil' dab on the scar for about twice a day, preferably morning and night. However the downfall to using retin-a micro is that it will peel your skin - but thats how it works. Using retin-a micro will make ur scars get better before it gets worst. tho retin a micro wont work over night, i am more then certain u will achieve decent results from using it atleast about 2-3 weeks. It takes a bit of time, but im positive that if you use this tropical and dab some acv dilutd with water, those maarks will fade in time. gd luck :)
