Does this help with indented acne scars?

Dermatology is not my specialty but what I know of the mechanism of action for glycolic acid, I doubt that it would help with indented acne scars. Glycolic acid works more on the surface layers of the skin and you would probably need some sort of mechanical action to remove the scars. You might want to check with an aesthetician for some options.

I've been using it for help with dark spots, and it helps. I'm sorry, I don't know about the indented scars. I can only assume it would help some, but maybe dermabrasion would give better and more immediate results.

I don't know enough about dermatology to answer particularly about dents. I just know that it really helped to fix the red spots from old zits. It doesn't clog my pores and I'm pretty sensitive. I still recommend it. Especially if you're a guy who shaves his face frequently.

I used it to lighten dark spots in my chick caused by acne. It works very slow until now my spots are not completely gone. Not sure if its my skin or what

I believe if you religiously use the product some lightening will occur but I am not sure about scars. A good dermatologist can better serve you with lasting results in my opinion

I haven't seen a difference. It does make your skin peel so it's probably doing something. I've given up on it as far as my face sun damage spots go and use it on my chest at night to see if it evens that area out. It's best to go to a Doctor to have laser to remove it. A procedure called Clear and Brilliant is very gentle and it gets rid of acne scars. :)

I am not sure about that. I know it really helps with skin irritation and breakouts for me. I use it in my hair and on my face but I am sorry I can't say 100 percent about how it will help scarring. It would hurt to try it though! Good luck! Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

I've heard it's doing it but honestly I haven't personally experienced much difference. It does help with marks and evening out skin tone but it won't be noticable quickly. U might need to use it for a month before you see the small difference. I am basing it on my experience.

This product is exactly like Pro-Active acne treatment but much milder and easier on the skin. This group doesn't specifically address scars/darkening. There ARE, however, many, many products to remove acne scars and discoloration. I bet many are available right here on Amazon.

I have never tried it for an acne scar. Try it for a few weeks and see. Take a picture before you start to check progress.

I've never heard of this; however, I have a lot of scars all over, and using this along with argan oil is helping to fade them.

Alpha Hydrox contains glycolic acid which helps turn over skin layers to reveal fresher skin. I think it would indeed help your situation. I know it helps acne and acne scars and it helps brown sunspots too. I don't see why it wouldn't help you.

Hi Brian,Yes. Our Vitamin C will help with Acne scar over time, yet we recommend that for this issue you will use our other serum, the Super C serum. It contains, beside other form of Vitamin C, also healing ingredients like Marine Kelp and ingredients that encourages creating new skin like Epidermal Growth Factor. These fantastic ingredients are not found in any other common Vitamin C serum on the market. It suits better for sensitive skin and can be used twice a day.The best solution is to use both, the Super C twice a day, and the Vitamin C serum 2-3 times a week to gain some extra gentle exfoliation that will help rejuvenating the skin.Thanks,F.

I am not sure about Acne scars. I don't have any and neither does my spouse. However, it helped with my wrinkles considerably as well as firming up my skin and my spouses bigger pores and black heads completely disappeared. We really love the product and recommend it. I just wish I new if it helped scars but I don't. I am sorry but I hope this helps. Wishing you all the best!

I found that using a vitamin c serum (I used a different one for this but this one looks fine) under a niacin cream at night helped. The niacin cream smells like play-doh and makes your skin flush while it's on, but it's worth it. I also took extra vitamin c (ascorbic acid powder) mixed with grass fed gelatin, and drank lots of water. It does help, but you need to be patient - keep it up for a few weeks.The extent of the effectiveness and how fast you see results depends on what kind of scars you have too. for me it was some skin discoloration; pock marks might take longer to improve.

I do not think that the medication is specifically designed for that purpose. However, I am seeing less dark marks from old acne spots due to the fact that I am not getting new acne and my skin is healing. My skin tone is slowly evening out the longer I go without a breakout, but it takes time.

I have not tested this on scars, however I have used it on eczema... and it has made those spots less noticeable in just a short period of time.
