I had really bad acne between about age 12 and 14 and it's left a lot of scarring, mostly on my cheeks. Any recommendations to treat them and get them to fade?

The only way that's really going to make a noticeable difference in Acne scarring is treatments from a dermatologist. Laser treatments, chemical peels and microdermabrasion are the most well known procedures in helping fade scars. :)

unfortunately I agree with Elizabeth. You CAN try creams that say they fade scars but reamember they may NOT work as well as adverttised deepending on scarring. But if it really bothers you that much, consult a dermatologist, or go to a spa. Alot of spas these days offer skin care treaments

fade creams wont really work since ance scarring is a bruise deep in the layers of the skin and fade creams tend to target melanin production...completely different. Like a scar on any other part of your body, it'll fade in time. You can help it along with a good exfoliant. I like origins modern friction or dermalogica skin prep scrub.
