using epilator, waxing, etc.

So, I do have facial hair and I use an epilator to get rid of it. I use the epilator three times a week, with plucking in between. My face looks like a piece of salami now because of the scars. However, I figure that it is better to have scars that I can easily hide with foundation than go out of the house with facial hair. Laser is not an option right now and neither is any other option which requires a large sum of money. I was just wondering how you gals deal with this? Do the scars fade over time? Are there other methods (other than shaving) which will not leave scars?

By scars, I mean red dots, like blemishes.

I shave every day

Its very annoying.....
But I guess try some good moisturizer, maybe that will help and soothe your skin

I epilate, the red dots arent scars, theyre just open pores where the hairs have been pulled out. I use tea tree body lotion on them because its anitseptic, it helps to soothe them and they fade away.
