Back scars and hyperpigmentation

Update: For added context, the scarring mention is flat and not textured/raised. Pretty sure if have to see a derm for that. It's scarring from being a horrible picker. πŸ™ƒ The back acne is pretty well managed now but hoping to help with skin tone. Just want to where pretty shirts & dresses. 😩 --- I have pretty extensive scarring and hyperpigmentation on my back from acne. I was not remotely aware of any skincare anything when I was younger. And embarrassingly a bad picker. I've gotten better with that with age but the scars remain. I've seen a lot of recommendations for the Some by MI AHA BHA PHA body cleanser that helps with lessening the dark spots and scars. Is there anyone that has had these results? I currently use the Cerave acne foaming cream with 4% BP. I know it's for the face but it's works well if keeping acne away on my back but not much for the scarring. I've been recommended Panoxyl with 10% but it's too strong for me. Any thoughts would greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Thanks for your input! I'm leaning more and more into buying the Some by MI. The Mizon lotion sounds nice too. Will look into it.

Here's my experience of using SBM Body Cleanser ⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CRp9dA3r-vi/?utm_medium=copy_link I think the scars you've got are post-hyperpigmentation (PIH). I'd suggest products with niacinamide, vitamin C, kojic acid or rice to help reduce/fade away the PIH ☺️
