Avatar n tn Hello, TCA peels can significantly improve freckling, blotchy or uneven pigmentation, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles and shallow acne scars but for the pits caused by electrolysis,the results are not too good.Laser resurfacing is better.The other method is filling with injections of collagen or hyaluronic acid. Hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar f tn Thank you kindd, I appreciate the info on the name for the discolouration of my skin as well as your advice on the names of possible treatments. I have heard that with hydroquinone that there is a risk of further darkening of my skin.Since I don't know in what instance that could happen, I'm holding off. I've also heard that these acid creams serve to thin the skin out, which might worsen the wrinkles?

Excessive use and using it without a doctor’s prescription can lead to side effects.

Avatar m tn i am a teenager girl 17years old. i have acne problem and oily skin and acne scars i have tried everything and every treatment nothing happend.so how should i cure my acne and my acne scares and oily skin.
Avatar f tn Yeah, try Conchar Nacar. It's a latin mask made from oyter shell. Great stuff. Use it like 2x a week. It will also help impurities on your skin. Make sure that you mix it before applying. It's a weird texture and looks like oatmeal when you put it on. But I have always used for a mask. http://www.americarx.com/BrandPages/Concha_Nacar_ProductName_ASC_25_1.
Avatar n tn I also have some scars in my face, like tiny holes because of acne. besides the treatment i´m already in to eliminate them, is there anything else I can do to accelerate the process of removing them?
Avatar f tn Hi, I have post inflammatory hyper pigmentation and I've had it for absolutely ages. After I get rid of a breakout it always leaves a red mark and it doesn't fade away! I've read online that they do fade away but for some reason mine aren't.. I still have some hyper pigmentation from some spots I had about 12-24 months ago.
20910642 tn?1627445346 Nothing else worked for me, as a result, scars have already formed. 95% of my scars are located on my cheeks and temples. 99% of the scars are "rolling" scars. I'm currently 25 years old and male, and I've been 1.5 years off Accutane and any oral medication for treating acne. My acne is now under control.
Avatar m tn Yes, but not hyper pigmentation, hypo pigmentation. At the moment i honestly do not mind it. I've redefined a couple of things here and there and no longer have an issue with it. In mild cases the pigmentation returns. So i expect in more extreme cases the pigmentation will return in some way or another. But i'll keep you updated. And thanks for responding.
Avatar n tn I have acne scars on my face they're red and black what should I do to get rid o them I'm having them for 2 years now
Avatar f tn Does anyone know about the scarring after-effects of accutane? I've read several reports of scarring left after it's use. I'm sure that scars are to be expected, as with any open wound, but I don't know if these reports are by anyone with abnormalities with healing/scarring. Here is the situation... I have mild, maybe slightly moderate acne. I get keloids on other parts of my body, but thankfully not my face. I still get abnormal facial scarring though.
Avatar m tn As for and my brother were exacly the same so Idk about that and as for my family on my mom side a bunch of my aunts and my mom have scars but my scars are differant colour my moms is her skin colour xept a bit darker mine are like dark redpurpleish colour but maybe because im half white and my mom is a filipina and as for my diet im pretty sure I have a good diet I like never eat anythinb bad
Avatar m tn For the scars of acne, treatments with acids and chemical peels can be effective but can take a while for the skin to totally revert to its normal color. Microdermabrasion can also be done, but this might require several sessions. Skin resurfacing using lasers is also an option. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar n tn There are different kinds of scars. Laser treatment can be effective for scars. It has become more popular and effective.

Avatar n tn Look it up online under a google search and type in acne scars and there are actually different types and it will tell you what kind of treatment works for what type of scar you have.
