I foolishly tried a regime of salicylic acid to treat a mole. The mole seemingly disappeared however...this remains. It's been a week since I've stopped treatment and I cover it with neosporin and vasaline daily. But the redness hasn't subsided much if at all.

Results can be seen in 4 -6 weeks. If it is the first treatment, is possible that multiple treatments are needed depending on the depth of scars. Discuss other treatments options with your doctor for acne scars that may be more effective , ex laser .
I would recommend a combination of Elevase ceramide cream and Melarase PM at this point to sooth the skin and reduce pigmentation. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
