Avatar n tn Dermabrasion is a cosmetic surgery procedure performed most commonly to improve scars due to acne, chicken pox, small pox and other skin conditions. It involves removal of the superficial layer of skin with no blood loss.
Avatar f tn Thank you, I have had 2-3 sitting of yag laser n dye star laser but i still have marks and the scars are the same. No improvement. I started that very early.
Avatar n tn In this procedure, actual removal of the hyperpigmented areas is done via laser peels. These treatments evaporate the first few layers (or even deeper) of damaged or pigmented skin to reveal fresh, even toned skin. Regards.
Avatar m tn I have many very noticeable acne scars on my face that have been there for years now. My dermatologist told me that after one or two treatments with the v beam that is would correct this but i've gone for two already and to be honest i see almost no difference at all. ive seen pictures on the internet of people much worse than me and i'm wondering why i havnt seen results yet.
Avatar n tn how do i get rid of acne scars of my face im a black male and finding it hard to find the right thing to use
Avatar m tn Of course laser scar removal can be used on the genitals to treat scars since laser removal is commonly used in removing warts caused by HPV. From my personal experience, laser therapy is not bad at all and involves very little pain after a session of laser treatment although the pain might be a little annoying when the treatment begins (it feels like bacon grease that occasionally splashes up and hits you in the wrist when you're cooking; nothing too painful).
Avatar f tn Hello, Benzoyl peroxide is effective for active acne lesions.Since now you are left only with scars which are a result of scratching, so they are post inflammatory hyperpigmentation scars.The treatment is the same as advised. Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries. Kind regards.
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.
Avatar f tn HI There, I had laser hair removal treatment carried out on my legs, underarms and bikini area 4 days ago. Whilst my underarms and bikini are healing well, I have broken out in an "acne" type rash which is itchy on my legs. I have been taking a piriton at night and piriteze during the day and also using sudocrem on my skin. Is there anything else that I can do to alleviate the itch, speed up the healing and prevent any scarring?
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 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 n tn Hello doctor. I really hope I can get some helpfull advice, since I haven't found any in a year. I had gotten a tatto on my thigh about a year ago and it got infected. (MRSA probably) I got 3 boils on the area. Went to a doct, was prescibed antiobiotics and all went away. The only problem is that I have 3 purplish scars left that just won't go away no matter what I do. They are a little unflattened, and dark purple.
Avatar m tn I have acne scars and general poor skin from going on roaccutane for my acne. I want rid of the scars and just a general rejuvenation of skin but so far every doctor I've seen has told me something different.
Avatar m tn Recently I received cortisone shots (5MG) in about 6 areas of my face that had hard swelling (not Acne). In the past, I have received the same treatment a few times, in different areas, but unfortunately this time I noticed major indentations in every area injected (different Dr. then previously used). I've heard this will come back with time (weeks/months) but want to be sure the body re-produces collagen in this area naturally, especially since this was not an acne induced indentation.

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 n tn There are different kinds of scars. Laser treatment can be effective for scars. It has become more popular and effective.
Avatar f tn I finally decided that my acne was troublesome enough to see a dermatologist. It isn't just the acne, but mainly the resulting scars that made me decide to seek the help of a professional. I get keloids on most of my body, but not on my face. I do have abnormal/excessive scarring on my face, but I wouldn't compare it to the keloids on my body. The facial scars are generally quite flat, but brightly pigmented (the color of inflamed acne, unfortunately).
Avatar f tn I have suffered from acne for 10 years until i took accutane that cleared my acne(now 21 years old)...Over these years my acne got worse and now i m left with small scars like holes ang huge pores on cheeks,nose and forehead that make me look older.Some of my pores are scared and the overall texture of my skin is bad.Is there any effective treatment and which type of laser would be the best and less risky for my skin condition? Thank you in advance!!
