Question by monique: what is the best over the counter acne scar treatment for sensitive skin?
i dont have much discolorations but i have some pockmarks not very deep nor noticeable. . In the right lighting the shadows make them very noticeable though. really brings down my self esteem.. my skin isnt smooth… it reminds me of a cookie under my eyes and aside my nose… more like my pores are large but its not my pores just from all the acne as a teen. is there an over the counter micro_dermabrasion system for sensitive skin? maybe even just a cream? anyting?

if you are thinking of getting a micro_dermabrasion treatment then what you have to know is if you have any islander culture in your heritage such as; aboriginal, African American, Fijian or anything like these then micro_dermabrasion will only make scars worse. (I have all three of these cultures in my background, my Great Grandfather was a full blood Fijian and I have been told I will never be able to receive this treatment)
If I was you and you didn’t want to go to a doctor just yet then the first thing I would do would be to go to a site such as for example
http://acne.about.com/od/livingwithacne/tp/acnescartypes.htm
And see which type of acne scaring you are suffering from so you know the name of your type of scaring. Then type into your google search bar eg; ‘(Name of you scaring here) scar removal’ or ‘(Name of you scaring here) scar treatment’
Have a look around on some sites and see if you can find anything that sounds like it could help your situation. If you decide that you would rather get a second opinion then I strongly suggest going to see a doctor. They might be able to recommended something that could help you otherwise try a Beauty Therapist they can recommend things doctors cant and they are very helpful trust me, my Beauty Therapist and I have just recently started trying to find a way to remove my sever post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
I’m sorry I cant recommend anything but seeing as I don’t know what type of scaring you have I wouldn’t want to recommended the wrong thing. And a lot of over the counter creams that I have tried have done nothing!
I hope you will have more luck than it seems I am having with my scar removal.
