Dark marks and acne
I'm a young African American women. Growing up I had clear skin. After my high school years I started to get pimples. Now my face has a lot of dark spots and some pimples. My complexion also gets darker for some reason on my forehead. I also have dark spots on my upper back and chest. I have tried so many different cleansers and moisturizers. Nothing seems to work. I have an appointment to see a dermatologist on March 31 but I really need the help now. My skin is the worst it has ever been and I just need professional help. What can you recommend for me to do to get rid of my dark spots and pimples?
Thank you
