By now, everyone should know that the way to avoid scars is to never, ever pick at pimples, blackheads or blemishes. But even with that advice, some people still have scars. Here are your options if you want to remove acne scars
1.Long term acne scars can not go away over night, but you can manage the appearance of acne scars
2.To prevent further damage, don't smoke. Wear sunscreen SPF 30 or higher on your face when you go outside. Avoid wrinkle creams that make your face sensitive to UV rays. And never pick at your existing scars or new pimples when they form.
3.Avoid a McDonald's diet. The combination of fat and high carbohydrates causes acne outbreaks.

4.Learn to live with your face. Your scars aren't as bad as you likely think. Obsessing about them will make you more likely to pick and further hurt your skin.
5.If you are older (past the point in your life where you still have acne) there are a few medical procedures that can reduce the appearance of scars. These are dermabrasion, laser peels or resurfacing, and chemical peels. These procedures are very serious, especially the last two, and have side effects that include raw and red skin, long recovery times, and the dreaded "shiny face pulled back look."
Before you consider these serious options, make sure your scars are actually serious, not just an obsession. The results of these procedures can also disappoint individuals, especially due to the extreme pain involved. Watch a plastic surgery show and critically ask yourself if the "results" of such a procedure are worth it.
6.A less serious method of reducing scars, for men, is simply using a rotating razor when you shave. Rotating razors are like mini dermabrasion machines, and studies have suggested that men who use them to shave reduce some of their acne scars.
