Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi there Young man. I have no grouse as regs your English. However, without a detailed history & some good visuals, it is difficult to opine what type of treatment will be required for you. Please upload good quality photographs of the lesions on this site using the 'upload data' icon or contact us on the 'ask-a-doctor' premium portal. It would be great if you consulted a dermatologist on the ground nearest you! Basically for the 'hole' type scars, you will require a procedure callled 'subscission' followed by 'dermabrasion'. For the 'ice-pick' scars, you will require 'excision'' followed by dermabrasion. Please do not pinch any scars or pimples henceforth. 2% hydroquinone cream mixed with retinoic acid cream applied on the spots evenings will help 'peel' & 'lighten' the more superficial ones. CHeers & Good Luck!
