Acne scars
I had acne break out some 4 to 5 months back due to period problems. Now, both the problems are resolved. Not getting acne but I see there are acne scars on my cheeks which looks like open pores. Will it go away on its own? Or will I require medication?

Procedures such as MNRF and fractional CO2 laser are required to reduce the scar. Creams will not work and it won't go away on its own.
Visit a dermatologist nearby for the procedure.
