i have acne spots and now im using some medicine(scars removal cream) on it to remove those scars i want to ask that how long does this acne scar cream should remain on my spots like 1 hour 2 hour or 3,4 hour?
it depends on what kind of medicine it is. Is is like a bleach (hydroquinone) or some type of steroid? Anyway, if I were you, the cream should stay on the scar all day, so it softens it/lightens it. If its a bleach type of medication, apply directly on the acne scar, then wash your hands after. If the cream seems petroleum like, I would rub the cream on your scar gently for a minute or two.
Other than that, what did the doctor order? or what does the directions say?
