    I'd hate to be a downer, but I don't think there's any way. My Aunt Zelda used to pop her zits all the time, and now her face is covered in scars. She's been trying to get rid of them for ages, but they haven't gone away. I'd suggest not popping any more zits. I'm really sorry I'm no help!

    Mederma will slowly heal the scars...How old are you? If you are still a young lady, please do not worry about the scars, it will go away step by step following the changing of your skin from child to adult and so on......But you must take good care of your skin by good eating habit, be aware of just any and cheap cosmetics, and do not smoke and drink alcohol...I am using this Garnier and they have good products even for acne and so on...but please do not worry, if the scars are not that bad, just ignore, do not try anything which actually may make them worse....They will heal....when you less noticing them,...ok?

    If you are not allergic to aspirin, try making a aspirin mask. Basically make a paste from water and aspirin or mix a bit of aloe vera gel and apply on your face. Leave on your face for 10 - 15 minutes and rinse off. You can also mix one part papaya and oatmeal into a paste and apply on your face. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes and rinse thoroughly. You can also make a mask of yogurt, pumpkin, strawberries, etc. Papaya, pumpkin, strawberries and certain kind of fruits contains enzymes and AHA, which where some chemical peels are derived from. Yogurt contains lactic acid, which is pretty gentle. Aspirin contains salicylic acid which helps with acne and some superficial scarring.

    There is a neutrogena product that is a type of home microdermabrasion. It should help but you have to follow directions and not expect any instant results, not to get discouraged soon with this.
    I would say go to the store and get this kit and try it at home. What have you got to lose and you won't spend a ton of money using this either. I would also exfoliate by using some type of skin cleanser with salicylic acid to help the skin cells slough better to remove old ones and renew the skin.

    There is this new popular cream that people have been talking about.

    It prevents future and existing acne, diminishes scars, and lightens skin and blemishes. Fast results too! (It's been claimed that major results can be seen within a week and no later than two weeks)

    Before and After photos are available at the given ebay site.

    This person is providing 1-3 week trial samples (Only for ONE DOLLAR.. definitely a deal) on ebay at:

    Search up "Cee En's Acne Solution" on ebay.

    First 100 customers can get the item for $1 for one week trial and up to 3 weeks. Or you can purchase 1 month supply for $40, 3 month for $100, or 6 month supply for $150

    It's expensive, but the product DOES work.

    My sister and cousin who both have major acne have tried the product and they both give it thumbs up. I have also heard many great feedbacks about this cream.

    I don't have a problem with acne, but it seems to have great results on my sister who has moderate to severe acne. Her acne swelling went away overnight.

    check the seller's feedbacks on the cream

    I hope this helps. =)
