Avatar f tn They have the common sense things like do not pick, washed twice a day, if you have oily hair wash everyday,rinse with warm water, and avoid some medications and over the counter products because they can be harmful to the baby. I have not found any home remedies on how to treat acne naturally. About the only thing that I have found is coconut oil but I do not know where to get it.
Avatar n tn I just got back from the Derm today and he reviewed my skin and he said that my acne redness is scarring.. Now i thought scarring is indentions in the skin? Is it not and that acne redness will fade with time because according to my derm he said that my acne redness is scarring and that the redness wont go away and that theres nothing that can be done about it. He said that i'll have to live with it for the rest of my life and that the only possible treatment for this is laser.

Avatar n tn Acne is a common condition that affects most people and some people develop severe acne that leads to permanent and sometimes disfiguring scarring. The term "scarring" refers to a process where collagen within the skin is damaged from inflammation, leading to permanent texture changes in the skin. Treatment of scarring may vary depending on the kind of scarring present. This can be assessed by a dermatologist.
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 f tn I looked up some natural at home remedies. You can use lemon as a bleaching agent. I have not tried it yet but I have the same problem. I also read on a thread that a doctor said benzoyl peroxide is ok. Gotta research that. Salicylic acid is a definite no no.
Avatar f tn Neck and hands have alot of keloids which is erstricting my movement. Please help with home remedies to eliminate this. am also getting an electric shock like felling accompanied by a painful burning sensation on my neck mostly. Please help as i cannot handle this pain anymore.
Avatar n tn Black spots associated with acne, may be due to a postinflammatory skin reaction secondary to the acne. Acne may cause scarring and darkening of the affected areas. This may be readily managed using vitamin E creams and bleaching creams given that the acne has resolved and there are no breaks on the skin. Does this apply to what you have?
Avatar m tn He has seen general doctors, specialists, and home remedies out the wazoo. Nothing works and no one knows why he continues to get these boils. He has been on antibiotics and even had to have surgery to drain a boil that went so deep, it was right on top of his spinal cord. This is a very painful and embarrassing condition for him and has cost him thousands of dollars trying to get rid of it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
6706619 tn?1391316843 Does anyone have any home remedies or anything that will make my skin less oily? Ever since pregnancy my skin has gone crazy, I tried better make-up (improved a bit) but my skin is still oily without it. It wasnt this bad til I hit this last trimester =;( ugh I'm 29weeks Saturday.
Avatar f tn ll get scarring because of the type of acne (cystic acne is apparently more prone to scarring). Is there any way to minimize the scarring? What do you ladies use to cover up? when does it go away?
Avatar n tn Anybody have any suggestions for pregnancy acne?? I'm 25 weeks. Its not too bad, just on one side of my face, but it can get really annoying at times. I'm currently using Ambi Foaming Cleanser which has somewhat helped but I'd love any home remedies to get rid of it.
Avatar f tn I’ve tried various over the counter acne washes and my doctor even prescribed me a 5% benzoyl wash, which did not even do anything. I’ve also tried home remedies like aloe Vera and putting lemon juice. I also tried lemon and honey for my hyperpigmentation but sadly it did not work. I really have bad acne scars and there’s still some active acne. I really don’t know what to do anymore to the point that I’m starting to thing that this problem will last me a lifetime and won’t be cured anymore.
Avatar f tn I used to have excellent skin with minimal acne, but now it is starting to scar, a lot. Home remedies and prescription pills from the doctor aren't doing squat, and I'm to the point I'm too embarrassed to be seen by anyone. I feel like a pubescent kid that everyone makes fun of. I'm afraid to date because it looks like an STI. My last boyfrirnd swore I had herpes, but I was tested repeatedly for it and it came back negative.
Avatar f tn m 34 weeks and in constant pain, but am trying to avoid the hospital unless I absolutely need to. Is there any home remedies I can try?
Avatar f tn s not working at all, washing my face twice a day, moisturizing! Nothing works! Any product or at home remedies would be great!!!! Thank you ladies!
Avatar f tn I was not well informed by my dermatologist about what I can expect my scarring to be like during the course of the accutane. She just said that if we stop the acne, we stop the scarring, then several months after we can look into their array of scar treatments.
Avatar n tn Depending on its severity, acne can lead to scarring of the skin. Some of the large nodules were previously called cysts and the term nodulocystic, as in your case. Acne treatment for mild cases usually involves self-care measures, such as washing your skin daily with a gentle cleanser and using topical antibiotics. On the other hand, acne treatment for severe cases usually includes one or more prescription medications.
Avatar m tn Mild-medium acne scarring which I've had several years after acne as a teenager has been resolved. They appear as very small brown dots throughout my face (Cheeks Primarily). There is no feel to the touch (skin is smooth now), purely aesthetic. I previously received chemical peels (I believe salicylic acid) via an esthetician. 3 layers would be applied (at max) which I opted for. Subsequent to receiving these treatments, I would have severe facial skin cracks on my entire face.
