Hi. I`m not an expert or anything, but I constantly do stupid things to my face attempting to get rid of acne, acne scars and scars from a car accident. Frequently, I mix chemicals and end up burning my face. The redness and white lines you talk about do eventually go away, but it takes time (6mths. or longer!) What I found to really help and speed up the process is to wash with a cleanser containing glycolic acid. Follow up with a lotion or creme that contains AHA`s. I use Alpha Hydrox 12% Glocolic acid souffle. You can order it online at www.alphahydrox.com. I`d recommend starting out with a lower percentage if you have sensitive skin. After I apply this and let it dry, then I use Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-wrinkle intensive deep wrinkle moisturizer.Two or 3 times a week, I also use alpha hydroxy`s 14% AHA wipes. All of these produts are gentle acids which speed up the cell renewal process. If you`ve never used AHA products before, your skin might start breaking out for the first month, but then clears up and looks great! The AHA`s help prevent acne AND get rid of fine lines. If you want to get rid of the redness faster, look for calendula oil opr products that contain it. I think you can find it at health stores, but I usually get mine from a tanning salon. Most of them carry products that contain calendula. It gets rid of redness ( sunburn) overnight. Hope this helps!
