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 My skin is so dry and my face is almost three shades darker than my skin, its almost depressing to even look at my self in the mirror, I regret taking acnetane actually, if I knew earlier that results would take as long as this to show , I would have stayed with my cheap temporary remedies for my acne, im so depressed by the way I look and I shy away from people or even taking pictures, my skin has not even changed at all, I still have acne along with the scars I had previously, this has been r
546892 tn?1214525401 I have acnes on my face and a litle on my chest and i have acne scars in both places, i was wonderin if acutaine would help my scars as well as acne? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/239739'>Accutane-scar question</a>.
Avatar n tn My mom and I researched it and were convinced it was rosacea, but I went to a dermatologist and she said it was acne scars and put me on all of this treatment. But I'm still stuck on the rosacea thing, because I just can't understand how all of these "acne scars" would have popped up overnight and spread around.And I have ZERO pimples on my face, it's just redness and spots. So isn't it pointless to put me on acne medication? I can post pictures if needed.
Avatar f tn s mostly around my chin and now I have scars on top of acne that make me self-conscious and not want to leave the house without make up. Before I had the Mirena I never struggled with acne, I'm just wondering if the acne will go away if I get it removed? I read some women experience worse acne after getting it removed.
Avatar f tn Hi, Acne scarring results when the visible remnants of acne are left on the skin after the acne itself subsides. The best way of treating acne scars is to start early. There are some treatments available for this condition. By using topical treatments prescribed by your dermatologists, such as biological acne scarring treatment where in the old, damaged tissues and scars are replaced by new cells.

Avatar f tn I have used Nadoxin C, Triglow, Deriva, Clyndamycin, Retino A, Acne lotion. Kindly suggest. What should i do to get rid of these scars on my legs, arms and acne on my face?
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 23 male 6 months ago noticed a bump on left side of penis shaft popped it then it got infected and repopped ( I know not a good idea at all) once it healed it turned into a crater like scar and I was wondering if it’s dangerous or something to worry about I do have pictures of it but am new to this site and not sure how to add them
Avatar f tn Hi all. For the past 2 years have gotten little bumps(almost like acne, but tinier and are not acne.) Tiny bumps, that even when I don't pick at them turn into yellow scabs that open the skin and are a reverse bump and go into my skin(I'm sorry I'm blanking, I'm feeling a little nauseous this morning(unrelated) and my brain can't think of the word). They appear on my wrists and on my arms.
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 He started using a product creatied by the dermalogical team Rodan+ Fields who also created Proactiv for acne. After 10 Days he is completely pain free and is no longer red.....Because of his success I now am a consultant for Rodan and fields. If you would like to see befored and after pictures or see the products my website is http://lagoodson.myrandf.. 60 day 100% money back even with an empty jar. There is a place on the website you can ask Dr's/Nurses questions as well.
Avatar n tn Take a look at my pictures to see how effective microdermabrasion and laser treatment can be at treating post-acne scars. You must wait 6 months after finishing Accutane treatment before having such procedures done because of the increased risk of scarring already fragilised skin. Oral retinoids can cause facial redness and it has only been 3 months since you finished Accutane. Use a good skincare regime for facial redness such as Clinique's Redness Solutions or Rosaliac by La Roche-Posay.
193609 tn?1292180293 I am not any where near my goal weight, but I posted some BEFORE pictures so you can compare me before to the pictures of me at the 5K this weekend! I have lost 42 lbs and I can not BELIEVE the difference in my pictures! Just some motivation for everyone...
Avatar m tn Unless your twin brother eats differently types of meals per day in terms of fast food or not, since that could be an issue that contributes with your acne problem since, or the fact that he's able to look after his skin better than you can. Acne outbursts and scars are normally caused by your diet, and how your hygiene is throughout puberty years and obviously puberty plays a giant role in your acne progress. Ask your parents whether they had the same thing as you when they were younger.
Avatar f tn Acne scars and scars in general will fade over time. Many times we worry about marks on our skin and think everyone notices them or looks at them, when it is only us who pay attention to these "imperfections" we have. Truthfully, no one else really cares about the small scars everyone has, as no one has perfect skin. Plus, if the picture you have up is you, you can't notice a thing and you look pretty. I am being honest.
Avatar f tn partially for my own sake, partially for my doctors. I think it helps (personally) to have pictures; especially showing before and after flare ups and sharing them with your doctor. My doctor and I review ALL the pictures I have taken since my last appointment at every appointment. She also, of course, has her own pictures that are taken at my visits. As for wanting to see other pictures... I agree with Jo...
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 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 f tn t like my skin always peeling. Then I got married and was unable to do anything about my acne because I got pregnant. After I had my first daughter I went to the dermatologist and she really couldn't tell me what kind of acne I had on my nose nor could she give me any type of clear of answer of how to fix it with the exception of that retin A stuff which I couldn't use because I was nursing my daughter...fast forward about 2 years later I'm still in the same boat.
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
1155893 tn?1263018015 i have been on accutane twice, once when i was 17, and now im 26. I have cystic acne, and it made it better but not like i wanted it to be. i just realize now that i'm doing the best i can at taking care of myself and if i still have acne then there is not much left to do. the people in my life who still stick around and think im beautiful are the people who are true friends and don't care what i look like on the outside.
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 Hello, The lesions that you have described sounds like a scar with post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The treatment for post inflammatory hyperpigmentation includes various skin creams like hydroquinone, azelaic acid, corticosteroids, tretinoin cream and laser treatment.Apply hydroquinone cream on these scars and it should go away in a few days to months.If it still persists then you can go in for laser treatment, Chemical peeling or microdermabrasion. Hope it helps.
Avatar m tn Hi, I'm Rhyan, from the Philippines. Well, I'm an acne sufferer.. 3 months ago, I was perfectly looking good, my face was clear, there was pimples but you could rarely see them on my face and they were getting healed naturally and fast. But now, everything turned upside down, I had breakouts that almost covered my entire face by acne in just 3 months!
