Acne blemishes/scars on my forehead that wont go away?
I have been acne blemishes, or scars, on my forehead. There aren't too many, just a couple in one spot and they wont go away. They aren't pimples, because there's nothing inside of them, and they've been there for months now. Is there anything you think I can use that will get rid of them? Normal salicylic acid stuff like Clean and Clear and brands like that have not gotten rid of them. Any ideas? Thanks!

LUSH has great products that can help repair you skin. Most of their products are vegan and the rest are vegetarian, so they contain natural ingredients. Go to your nearest LUSH store and ask them to help you pick out a couple face products. I'd recommend Mask of Magnaminty and Gorgeous to help with your skin.

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

If its a scar nothing over the counter will help. However there is a product that lighten/ removes scars that you can get from a doctor. Its a cream you rub on the scar twice a day.

You can try using neosporin, since its on your forehead its safe to use there. Exfoliate at least twice a week and put some neosporin on it everyday. Acne blemishes take time to heal, so it won't be a quick process.

You can buy lightening creams or use natural things like lemons which help fade scars and marks. Also, just give it some time, scars take time to heal. Meanwhile, you can use a good concealer to hide them when you feel like it...hope this helps! =]
