Will this help get rid of my acne scars?

This stuff has saved my skin
I was suffering from bad hormonal acne on my chin. I went to a dermatologist and she put me on antibiotics for three months and prescribed very agressive creams. I tried it for three months but my acne got worse. I still had the Azelaic Acid Suspension laying around and decided to give it a go, in o...

Received oxidized serum
This was my first time ordering and sadly I received an already oxidized serum which is supposed to be unoppened, most probably it's a batch that is expired as the website states unoppened products have 3 years shelf life. I will seek to return this product and hope there won't be much hassle in t...

Does what it says
I was hesitant but I do have to say since I started using this. It had helped so much, I have very sensitive skin, cystic acne, combo skin and I tend to break out alot. But since I added this with a new moisturizer, cleanser 🫶 is perfect 👌
The tube feels half empty- but will purchase a larger size
I purchased the small size to make sure my teenager doesn't have a reaction and thankfully he has not, but the tube feels half empty which is the disappointment. I will purchase the large size after the bite size tube is finished which apparently will be very soon.
Fades Hyperpigmentation!
I have tried sooooo many products for my hyperpigmentation. Nothing worked as well as this product over Vitamin C serum. I usually prefer serums, but this product is NOT greasy at all. I'm genuinely impressed. I wish this came in a larger size. But the price is so reasonable that I can just replinish with fresh product as needed.
Packaging
I really liked the actually product itself and definitely noticed a difference. The price is great but there is barely any product in the package. The packaging also is not the best and everytime I squeeze it either a lot of product comes out or nothing at all. I used this for like 2 weeks not even every day and I am already out of it?
Literally just change the packaging
This product has helped me so much with my acne the only thing is it's packaging is absolutely horrendous. It is so hard to get product out or too much comes out. I wish they would package it differently and make a bigger size.
