How to get rid of acne detox marks?

In late Feb I went vegan (I had flirted with vegan/vegetarianism for so long and knew dairy/meat made me sick so I just went vegan overnight.) At this time I also gave up coffee, caffeine (well mostly, I've had tea at times without realizing there was some caffeine inside.) A little over a month ago Alicia suggested to me to eat as much superhero is possible for my skin so since then I've done about 80-90% superhero. Throughout this journey I've also switched to all natural vegan bi-products, make up, and lunapads too. I've avoided sweets for the past few years because it always caused me to break out and without it my skin stays pretty clear. My body feels wonderful, however my skin started breaking out a lot due to detox, then it calmed down a bit. Although it started up again when I tried brown rice syrup- so I guess that's another sweetener that doesn't work for me. But now my skin is calming down again. Anyways how long did skin detox take for everyone else? Also, is there are a way to speed up the process of getting rid of the dark marks that zits leave behind? It's funny because I NEVER pick at my blemishes, yet they still leave behind marks that take some time to go away and it's truly frustrating. I wash my face with Avalon Organics Lavender face wash + use Korean green tea toner and moisturizer and in the morning I use some Olay spf complete moisturizer (when I run out I'll switch to cruelty free) in the morning for sun protection. I started drinking the Yogi skin detox tea but stopped because I saw that it had a little caffeine in it. Any advice?
I went vegan beginning of Feb and my skin is just finally clearing up. Have you tried the green apple peel from Juice Beauty? I stings like heck but I think the marks left by past beakouts have faded. I ordered their whole skin blemesh kit and its been working pretty well. I had to stop using the Olay moisturizer, it was making my breakouts even worse.
Hi Lily, I too have struggled with break outs. I have started using pure tea tree oil(the blends never worked for me) and it has been the miracle product for me. I put it on any marks that are taking awhile to go away or a new break out. I use it in the morning, under my make up and at night, after I wash my face. It has really worked and it is all natural. How about all of these Autumn's reponding to your post? 
I had acne too and I hated so much. Was trying everything to get rid of them
Finally I found very helpful website: How do you get Acne
I used their recommendations and after 2 month i got rid of them!
Maybe aloe, either from a lotion or straight from a plant (the most potent)? I've used aloe for skin burns and other potential scars and it's worked wonders.
My doctor said to get rid of acne scars put Vitamin E on them.
I'm a clinical aromatherapyst and I have had very good results using Helichrysum Essential oil in Jojoa oil. Use 4 drops Helichrysum in 5 ml of Jojoba. Healing times for my clients varied depending on age of the scarring and their eating habits. it takes 28 days for new cells to come to the surface so don't look for instant results. It could take 60 - 90 days.
Some tips for all
Make use of the Right Items
Topical skincare items that contains benzoyl peroxide are discovered to be helpful in eliminating acne. Becoming an antiseptic, benzoyl peroxide does a great job of killing the bacteria accountable for leading to acne. Just in case that does not work, one might opt for creams which contain salicylic acidity. Essentially, salicylic acidity functions being an exfoliating agent and encourages peeling of outer skin. Exfoliation helps you to eliminate gathered the dead skin cells around the superficial skin. Therefore unclogs the blocked pores effectively. The unblocking action also removes the oil buildup in blocked pores, thus assisting to obvious acne. Other items like 'Exposed' acne treatment are supported by positive customer recommendations and also have been good at obtaining a better looking skin inside a short duration.
Face Clean
Cleansing the face area two times daily with acne face clean which contain natural elements is an additional method to eliminate acne fast. Probably the most popular face washes like Pronexin and Positive facial cleanser combat acne effectively. These items are developed to advertise losing of dead skin cells cell and destroy the bacteria. They behave as gentle skin lotions and try to nourish and restore natural glow of your skin.
Exercise
Carrying out a 20-25 minute workout daily may also lead in eliminating acne fast. Hormonal discrepancy is frequently the primary reason behind surplus manufacture of sebum (oil) that eventually triggers acne. More particularly, an excessive amount of testosterone related the body's hormones are now being created that disturb the hormonal balance. Physical exercise reduces testosterone production, that is essential to control and eliminate acne. However, make certain you do not over exert yourself or exercise for prolonged time period as this leads to worsening of acne.
Consume a Healthy Diet
Any problem and something just can't manage to drink inadequate water. Lack of fluids can aggravate acne signs and symptoms and thus to prevent such undesirable changes onto the skin, sufficient intake of water is essential. Topical items will not give good result, unless of course certain meals are thrown away in the diet. A healthy diet plan forms a fundamental element of best acne treatment. More particularly, an acne free diet needs to be adopted to beat this problem in the earliest.
