I have had very much issues with acne during my teens and because of this I have acquired some acne scarring from squeezing them (yes I was young and stupid) now I wonder, what is the best preventive and treating skin cream for treating the scars and making them less visible as well as treating the acne?

Hi!
The best is Scarguard MD . Available in the US and in the UK. Can be mailed.
You can use a tretinoin creme 0,05% consentration, RX only(Rretin-A, Janssen-Cilag or Ortho Pharma). And or a lightening agent like hydroquinone or the mixture of Azelaic acid, kjic acid, tretinoi, and AHA.
All these treatements have excellent results alone or combined.
There is a new product on teh market RX only, av. only US

I am 17 and still have acne whereas most others my age have lost theirs. I don't seem to have any scarring and yet I used to pick them quite a lot, I am going to see a dermatologist soon, and it seems like this is the best course of action since I have tried many products over the years and none work.

i would go read about an asprin mask on essentialdayspa.com

i tried it last night, and it more or less completely removed the blotchy red skintone from my face in one use...

Aspirin masks are amazing. All you really have to do is dissolve a few cheap (not coated) aspirins in water or aloe vera--then cover your face with it. Ten minutes later, wash it off. I always notice a visible change immediately. Note that aspirin is salicylic acid--which is also BHA--the same stuff they put into expensive acne products.
