Most of the acne of your age leaves some scars. These are normal process and requires time. Although a dermatology consult will only guide you to reduce further residual of the course. I would recommend to get a plastic surgery consult which will require you to go for an epidermal reconstruction. Best is to wait and see how your skin reacts and adapts this course.

Hi. What I understand from you response is I should let it take its course? I have now gone back to trying out home remedies though.

I feel still ur acne is not completely cleared . Still some red pimples are there showing still it is present and can u tell me what treatment u took . For acne scar treatment if u used isotretinoin then u will need to wait for 3-6 month minimum before going for scar treatment. During this time u can continue with sun protection.
