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.
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 At first, I believed this bumps were hypertrophic acne scars. I thought this because the bumps appear exactly on the same location where I had pimples. The biggest bump I thought was related to a really big pimple I had on my nose 5 years ago. Now, I don't know if the bump was very big at first. I would think if it was big at first I would have noticed it and been conscious of it.
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!!
Avatar f tn I did have mega acne on one of my cheeks, just under my face on the chin/neck line and on my chin. I Had to explain to several of my students what pimples are! My doctor suggested using a solicic (sp?) Acid face wash so I bought Aveeno and it has worked wonders! It dries out my face so I moisturize morning and night. Now just to hope I don't get any scars!
Avatar f tn So, have you ever heard of the phrase, its like salt in the wound? Tear have salt in them and that will burn if it hits agitated, irritated skin with eruptions. I hope you don't have to cy to much.
Avatar f tn It all started with small pimples on my forehead which went away and then it proceeded with acne on my cheeks and jawline. The acne though is deep inside of my skin. Some pimples did hurt some pimples didn't. I also went to the dermatologist, and she gave me a specific antibiotic: Vibramycin 100 mg : which made me worse. When I say worse I mean it with the whole meaning of the word. My acne wouldn't go away one bit.
Avatar n tn Hi. What is your son's diagnosis? If he has acne or rosacea a course of oral antibiotics from his doctor may be effective. Clinique have lauched a new range of products called Redness Solutions. Using their cleanser and moisturiser will reduce visable redness of the face. I also recommend Eucerin's Redness Relief cleanser and moisturiser, which is a bit less expensive.
Avatar f tn I have scars on my arms, legs, some of the light scars are visible on my cheeks as well. But the scar marks that i have on my legs and arms are very much visible. 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 So i break out very much on my cheeks there is a lot of pimples, they are only medium sized though. I mess with them all the time and constantly pop them until they bleed but I havent seen scars or anything. Why is that?
Avatar m tn Need some advice... I'm 32 years old and I've been diagnosed with papulopustular Rosacea a year ago.. Nothing really helped (antibiotics, metro cream, noritate, elides..) until I tried soolantra cream which cleared my forehead, nose and cheeks and almost all of my chin. I was taking orthotricyclen since 15 years and was told to switch to Diane 35 for better results because it seemed to be more of hormonal acne...
Avatar f tn ( Maybe its because so much happens with our body and baby these last few weeks. How far along are you?
Avatar f tn I'm booked in for a fraxel laser treatment on my nose cheeks and forehead for large open pores and "ice pick" scarring (or is this the same thing)? Can anyone tell me of their own experiences with this or someone they know maybe??? Was it successful or a total waste of time, money and pain? There is so much info on the internet about this I just want to hear the opinions of some "real" people. I'm getting really nervous about it. Help!!!
Avatar f tn Before the surgery was performed, my menstrual cycle was irregular and I had several breakouts on my face (specifically cheeks) that left scars behind. Now, while my cycle is back on track, I still continue to have these breakouts on my right cheek and I do not know the reason. Can you see any reasons for the same? I would be glad to hear some suggestions too.
Avatar f tn Recently I've been getting small pimples on both my lower cheeks and chins, for the past two months, it comes and goes, most of them are just Papules and not actual Pustules pimples, only sometimes I get the Pustules pimples. It was really stressing me out as I've never had them so server, so often like this before.
Avatar n tn It worked a treat but 9months after I had finished treatment the acne returned. Over the years I have been on 3 treatments of Roacutane for about 18months each with the same result about 9 months later. At the age of 23 I went to a new dermatologist who suggested trialing a 4th treatment of Roacutane, I refused not knowing the permanent damage it might have on my body especially considered I'd like to have children one day and Roacutane causes birth deformities.
Avatar n tn Are you seeing scars from the pimples or pimples? Typically acne scars will fade with time, but that depends on the severity and your skin. If you are having issues with acne, I recommend trying either Proactive or a product called Unblemish by Rodan and Fields- both you can locate by searching Google for them and order them online, I believe.
Avatar n tn Combination (Oily t-zone (acne prone) and normal cheeks and chin) -No skin conditions and No allergies First two days were fine. Made my skin smooth and hydrated. On the third day, I had spots on both cheeks and chin (itchy red pimples and dry flakey cheeks mainly around those itchy pimples). I thought it was odd, so, I tried using a clay mask to get rid of the spots, and I noticed that no oil of any kind came from around the breakout area.
Avatar f tn Omg' i need to keep updated with this, ive suffered from bad ache since middle school :/ ive tried everything, did not care for proactive. But tgen i met this super awsome make up artist/ dermatologist and she introduced me to a product called "beauty control" by skin logistics. I absolutely fell in love it worked so good , comes with a fash wash, toner, face masque/ exfoliater, and lastly but not least a lotion. It worked wonders, but you have to do it twice a day.
Avatar n tn When I look in the mirror right now besides a few spots all I see is like a rash on my cheeks, my pores are open around my nose/under my eye. There are also like white spots (not spots but like my true skin colour) around my main cheek area. It is really hard to describe and I have uploaded some pictures for you to look at.
Avatar m tn Most noticeable are the dark patches (about 1-2 inches) on my cheeks. IS there any way of clearing this and having a clear and normal skin? btw, I am 25 years old male. I am british asian so have brown skin.
Avatar n tn Hello, These sound like pimples or acne. Acne is due to an overactivity and plugging of the oil glands. Acne usually lasts until age 20 or even 25. It is rare for acne to leave any scars unless picked. Just keep you face clean by washing with a mild soap atleast twice a day.Pat it dry and do not rub it.Avoid picking or pressing the acne.You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face.
Avatar f tn ve been on acne meds for 10 years because but it has not stopped the problems being red marks on my face that starts small and gets bigger and bigger burns badly and scars. Theres usually no pimple around that area and I dont not touch my face. Meds so far has not helped the to stop the scarring.
Avatar f tn I have bumps all over my cheeks. They are the same color as my skin and only can be seen at an angle in the sunlight or a bright light. One derm said acne and the other said rosacea. Both do not fit. It’s like just like uneven texture. If you run your hands over my cheeks they feel smooth.
