Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
Acne scars are notorious for being resistant to treatment.
While long term use of Supatret gel will mildly reduce your open pores and scars,for good appreciable results you should go for some procedures.
There are many options available for scars these days. Starting from basic chemical peels to Dermaroller,subcision for moderate to severe cases and lastly laser therapy for severe scarring.
Enquire about the best treatment for your skin from your dermatologist. Usually a more than two procedures are combined to give the best possible results which start appearing within a month of treatment.

Hope this will take care of your issue.
Thank you
