How to get rid of scars and blackheads

I have sensitive skin and I get blackheads a lot and when I do get rid of them they scar from squeezing what can I use to lighten or get rid of these? Not bio oil though!

@Jan - Okay thank you very much. I will try getting some different oils, creams and cleansers and cut down on sugar and drink more water. I will let you know how this goes.

Stop squeezing, not only does it cause scars it also causes more spots. Your skin will improve itself as it changes in cycles and with age, but you can do some things that will help. When you've had a bath or shower the steam will have opened your pores so that's the best time to exfoliate.Try using a enzymatic product as if you use one for oily skin it can cause extra sebum production and more blackheads. Gatineau have a good one that you can use 2 or 4 times a week and has a lovely orange smell. While your pores are open use a antiseptic like Tea Tree Oil to help clear up any infection. Use a gentle cleanser twice a day followed by a toner for sensitive skin and a light moisturiser, the gel type are good.Mineral makeup is a better option for problem skin as is any naturat products, Liz Earl has a good range. Drink plenty of water or juice and cut down on sugar. Try to include fresh fruit and vegetables in your diet as thay contain antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that are important for healthy skin and hair, I hope this helps and good luck.
