Dark spots after pimples?

Hello So this is sorta of 2 questions in 1 so bear with me

So I popped some pimples like about 2 weeks ago ( I know stupid, really idiot move on my part ) and I'm left with these hideous darkish flat red spots. I'm able to cover them up with concealer and stuff, but I really hate wearing powder/concealer on my face ( Summer coming up, swimming, beach, water in general lol)

Question 1: Are these the “Ance Scars” I got from popping? OR can it be treated with some lotion or skin treatment??
Question 2: I'm putting neosporin on it right now each night, is there any better solution? Oh and does neoporin make your face break out more??
Thanks!!

Answer:
these are acne scars, i had really bad acne and yes use to pop some and they left red flat marks on my face sometimes, unless you didnt break the skin really hard with your fingers they’ll fade away with time.. usually 1 or 2 months depending on how severe and how much damage was done to the skin, i still have some ice pick scars from really damaging my skin when popping them. The red flat marks most of them will go away with time so dont worry about it.. in the mean time drink water, dont pick your face and use natural products.. good luck

Answer:
Try alpha hydroxy acid or glycolic acid. Or make a paste of 5 generic uncoated aspirin with water, apply to entire face at least once a week. It dissolves dead skin cells, so after a while it may make the red spots disappear. Or try Aquaphor Healing Ointment which speeds healing and lessens scarring.

Answer:
Yes. And neosporin closes up the pores on your face, causing whiteheads but usually not pimples. It also attracts dust. You're superior off just cleaning the area a little more than usual.
Use hydroquinine solution at 2% after the areas have healed, it will lighten your scars dramatically.

Answer:
In the future don’t pop your pimples, yes that’s why they left black marks. Leave them alone. Just keep your face clean and your hands out of it. In time the marks will eventually go away. In the future when you have a pimple, put peroxide on it, and it will dry them away without leaving black marks.

Answer:
neosporin is something for cuts a pimple isn’t a cut.. its scaring after a pimple popping. you should just wash it it no extra stuff cause it will over dry it causeing more pimples to come.. and when you tann in the summer it actually helps pimples go away it worked for me. and the scars will go away on there own.

Answer:
in my personal experience those kinds of things do tend to fade but it usually takes at least a month or two. While you probably made the “scars” worse by popping them there still probably would be something there anyways. Neosporin probably will make your face breakout more since it seems pretty oily. What you should try to do is apply some kind of acne treatment or something. I think things with retinol are supposed to clear up scars. I use Differin which is what I think helps. Also, you should make sure you apply some kind of moisturizer with sunscreen in it everyday, especially on that spot (my dermatologist told me that the sun can make the scarring worse since that skin is more sensitive)
