Are there any remedies that can lighten purple/red spots from acne faster then they would heal themselves? I've tried lemon juice but it really dried out my skin; anything else that isn't so harsh?

You can try a concealer to cover them up some, then apply your make up. Also Mederma is great for scars of any sort, so that is another option. Using an astringent helps open the pores too.

I'd say keep you skin exfoliated well, and maybe try to get some sun to even out your skin tone where the scars are. Also remember to moisturize!

use acne free! it works wonders! good luck!

if you put a green tinged concealer under a foundation it hides red blemishes.

I would ask a dermatologist or your doctor, but then I am into people asking doctors medical questions for the most part, versus lay people.

Opening a vit. e capsule onto any scars can help them heal more quickly. Put a drop or two onto the affected places.

I have had acne prone skin since my teenage years. I am now 25. I find natural home remedies and Biore work best for me. The best thing to do is to experiment and find what agrees best with your skin. I use lemon juice as a toner. I find it's amazing, it brings all the impurities out to the surface. I only use it once a week though, because it is harsh.

I have been using apple cider vinegar at the advice of someone from A.B. it is a great way to treat acne and also fade brown spots. Not sure if it will help with purple but it is worth a try. You can apply with a cotton ball that is damp with a water and vinegar solution. Let me know if it works for you too.

Mary Kay has a little tube of stuff that will remove any acne and actually if you feel any coming on just put a dab of it on it and it's gone, never even comes to a head. I can't remember what the stuff is called unfortunately, but if you contacted someone they sells Mary Kay and told them what you were looking for they would probably know what you were talking about.

I believe the product Mederma lightens the redness left by scars or blemishes.
-
I know it sounds strange but if it is unbroken skin, visine reduces the red almost immediatly although it is temporary

Use the red-eye fixer eye drops. It does work. And a little green based concealer will help with a touch of powder or foundation to blend with your skin.

2-2-2017 The purple spots are bruises caused by clumsy squeezing. You should get vitamin C pills, or sodium ascorbate powder, and take a large dose every day. Vitamin E promotes healing and softens scars, so you want some of that every day, and you can also poke a hole in a capsule and squeeze the oil onto a scar to soften it. Vit E has to soak in, so put it on when you can leave the skin bare for a while. Vitamin A is needed to clean the body. Tests on mice indicate that A, C, and E every day can double the life span. If you read some books about nutrition you can know stuff like that.
