I don't know what the worst part of breaking out is for me — the actual pimple, or the mark that's left behind in its place for months after it heals. My skin is especially prone to discoloration and dark, red acne marks — I really don't know why — but it makes managing my combination skin type even more frustrating.
I get hormonal breakouts on my jawline, so I'm constantly on the hunt for products that will fade the acne marks and discoloration in that area especially. I practically bathe in vitamin C every morning and do a brightening peel mask once a week, but the stubborn spots still stay put. Trust when I say it's not from lack of trying that the marks are still visible. If there's one person I trust to know their stuff when it comes to pimples — and healing pimples — it's Dr. Pimple Popper herself, Sandra Lee, MD. And her newest product sounds like it was plucked straight from my dreams.
