I took isosupra for 5 months and it worked, and now after 2 months I still have scars and redress. Can I apply salicylic acid on them?

Dr. Rola Al Dhaybi Dermatology
You have to wait for several months before the redness disappears, however the scars that remain following treatment will remain. Treatment of acne scar is not usually by salicylic acid. So the advice is wait till redness resolves, if the scars seem acceptable cosmetically speaking then it will be great, otherwise you will need to get back to your dermatologist and discuss the options of scar treatments based on how deep your scars are on examination.
