Red marks left from acne

[matty123456789]

Hello
Im 15 male and i use to have moderate acne but i cleared it all up by my derm prescribing me ziana(tretinoin 0.025 and clindamcyin 1.2) Now all i have is red marks, what can i do to  clear them up? And are they red marks or hyperpigmentatioon because i searched that PIH is brown and mine are red marks.

What's more annoying than having a cystic like mountain form on your face? The telling scarlet mark it leaves behind! Boil 1 to 1 1/2 cups water in tea pot or in a small saucepan on stove. Pour boiling water into tea cup or small bowl. Squirt or pour 1 teaspoon of lemon juice in tea cup or small bowl. Wait for tea to cool for a few minutes. Remove tea bag. Dip a small corner of cotton ball or cotton square into tea. Squeeze out any excess before putting on face. Sit on couch / bed with pillow / wherever comfortable to rest arm while holding cotton ball / square in place. Place cotton ball or square and hold on red mark your face for about 2 minutes. Using the actual tea bag instead of the cotton ball will also work. Repeat for a few times as desired. Repeat once a week until red marks disappear.

I have the same - i had severe acne and have been left with red marks all over my face. My acne comes and goes. When i had acne previously i had N Lite laser, which cleared it up and then i went to The private clinic in Harley Street, London where i had a few skin peels (fairly minor and didn't hurt) and this helped a lot. Unfortunately my acne has returned due to stress so i may need more peels in the future.
