spots on chest and shoulders and back!

Hi, just wondered if anyone had experienced this and could tell me if there's any way to reduce scarring. I had a crop of spots on my back a good while ago, some of which have ended up as sort of raised scars...also more recently have had a crop on my upper chest and breasts, a couple of which are also now scar tissue...I haven't been worried about the boob 'lumps' btw because they started off as whitehead spots which were squeezable but it's annoying that i've been left with a few red marks/scar tissue bits on my boobs, it doesn't look nice.
I've gone to only using cotton bras now as I think the spots on boobs may have been coming due to wearing cheap non cotton bras!

Is there a way to reduce these lumps I've been left with or do I just have to accept they're there now? thanks for any thoughts.

In my experience, these will fade gradually over time, but it may take a while. I would recommend mosturising with something like bio oil daily just to assist the natural repair.

ah ok, not heard of bio oil. Ta!

I was quite surprised to get spots on my boobs, not had them there before but I guess I've always worn cotton bras before. Curse cheap bras!

I will give the oil a go, thanks for the tip
