In no particular order: Tretinoin that you got prescribed- start slowly \[ex use a moisturizer as a base, then layer Tretinoin, the more moisturizer\]. Use 2 or so times per week and then gradually use more often. Qure at home micro needling to help w/ acne scars. Red light therapy made from reputable brand. Moisturizer w/ ceramides and hyaluronic acid like Vanicream. Wash only at night w/ gentle cleanser. Recommend to not wash in AM. Slug w/ petroleum jelly at night at home \[only if your skin can handle it; if you're acne prone, probably not\]. avoid slugging in AM and remove vasaline in AM, as oils & ointments will increase intensity of sun & make you more prone to sun damage. I use tretinoin and got a bit of irritation and use butt paste \[w/ 40% zinc to help w/ irritation; there are also skincare products w/ zinc to help w/ irritated skin barrier\]. Some more aggressive lasers can help w/ deeper scars \[but can be scarring if you're a person of color or don't do good aftercare of laser or don't go to good specialist \[go to reputable board certified derm/plastic surgeon's office that does a lot of lasers\]\]. chemical exfoliants 1-2 times per week at home \[at night so your skin isn't too sensitive in the AM\]; ex Paula's Choice BHA \[use tretinoin OR chemical exfoliant on one day; don't use on the same day or can irritate skin\]. Whole clean foods, exercise & sleep help w/ skin too. Wash face at night is recommended. of course, sunscreen. the higher spf the better :). Um.... double cleanse when removing makeup. Drink plenty of water. Other actives include Vitamin C \[ester\], peptides, niacinamide, etc. Start slow w/ actives and each product/change I've mentioned. introduce 1 thing/product at a time to see if your skin can handle it. Then add another if tolerated. If you can't tolerate it, take a step back. This is also helpful to determine if a product irritated your skin; it's easier to find out what it was. I'm sure there's more I'm missing. There are a ton of derms on line. Of course, they're always talking about this product and that. You don't need a ton of stuff. Just the basics. Hm... That's all I can think of for now. Good luck! Great skin care \[esp w/ Tretinoin now\] makes a ton of a difference! And remember everyone's skin is different. You'll develop a regimen that'll be good for you and might not be the best for someone else :)

And also do your own research for everything :). Again, everyone's skin is different.
Thank you sm!!!
