can anything take away the redness of old spots?

[JanieLovesLuckySocks]

hello beauty gurus.

i'm 31 weeks pregnant and suffered from very spotty skin around my chin and nose in early pregnancy. luckily my skin has improved and the spots are staying away for now (touch wood), however the redness from the old spots lives on and there's no way i can go make up free...i look a bit like i have a red goatee :( i have a good skin routine, using good facial wash, moisturiser, and i exfoliate with a gentle product and use a mask once a week.

a friend recommended bio oil for the redness but it hasn't done anything.

any ideas other than concealer? xx

I have this problem from acne scars I got when I was 20..marking a place

If anyone experiments, please report back!

Nothing off the shelf works. To shift pigmentation, you need hard core prescription-only products.

It might be worth looking into retinol products, although I'm thinking not whilst pregnant!
