Im a worker at age 31, i am haunted by scars since 2014... i kept telling myself that the cure would be here soon

it will be ..either skinTe or i think nefopam

i heard back ago nefopam reduces scars size upto 1/3rd of original wound size so re excising again and again and applying nefopam again and again will eliminate scars or at last make it like a scarred pore ??? many things are on line

i need some motivation can i ask that everybody here

what types and how severe scarring you are suffering from ?
and carrying these scars u all had been able to live your life till now so
whats your current stage means a student or have a job or a worker

sorry for my bad eng...it isnt my native language

but reply please

I have severe scarring for 10 years. It feels very bad everyday, affected my whole life, made me feel recluse and unconfident (Which isn't my original character, I was a confident and attractive guy). I still try to go out but I feel anxiety panic most of the time and feel very conscious of myself. Sometimes I have very bad headaches because of the depression. Also, because of all these emotions you tend to have mood swings and people might not understand you which exacerbate the negative feelings even more.

I had a girlfriend before I had very bad cystic acne, (Imagine pus and blood all over when it popped) which caused the scarring. Broke off with her during the acne period (Not her fault its mutual and I just felt I needed time alone).Not to mention all these happenings caused me to completely give up in my studies, I still managed to barely graduate but I knew in my heart I would have been an ace student if all these did not happen.

In between 10 years I only one other girlfriend which I met on Tinder, which I was playing for a few months. She did not mind my scars but then again I just felt too conscious of myself so broke with her after a couple of months.Our personality wasn't a match in my opinion also. I know I shouldn't be choosy at this point but If I don't feel its going anywhere I rather break off then drag.

I am currently working, If PolarityTE works I would take a break from work and use it to treat myself. I am hoping and praying to God my life turns around. Sometimes it feels like a nightmare, I keep thinking why me?
I also couldn't understand why I had cystic acne all of a sudden when I only had occasional pimples during my teen years and never had any serious acne problem except that 3 months of really really severe acne.

I feel cursed, how many people have actually felt everything taken away from them? I did.
People say that death is scary. To me it isn't scary at all, death is a release, there's no pain involved. What's scary is living like a zombie, not being able to go out and lead your life a normal human being and having all your emotions bottled up and trapped.

Everyone has their reason for being here and everyone has their struggles with scars. No different from forums for people with balding hair, they want their hair back like we want our skin back. Im trying my best to forget the past and focus on a future with new developments and products at our fingertips. 10 years ago when this all started i was offered Laser and that was considered the best thing available...the outlook was miserable really. Fast forward to today and we have a company with a group of excellent Doctors and researchers who say they can now regenerate full thickness skin all layers and appendages something that was i was told was impossible many times. BirchBioMed and Sunogel are pressing their claims also in a race for a solutuon with all 3 very different products.

lets be honest no current treatment can significantly reduce or prevent scarring. Current treatments can reorganise and soften scars so if SkinTe does truly regenerate, reduce and prevent scarring even to a significant degree i would be very excited about getting this treatment. And so what if it needs to be repeated to reach an optimal result.

Hi there,

I'm new to this forum. Let me start by saying that I am a young guy in his early thirties still struggling with this common skin affliction known as acne. The condition has destroyed my confidence over the years but hasn't held me back from achieving my goals. I accepted my sad state of skin as a young adult and realized I will never grow out of it.

Dermatologistswere not that helpful often prescribing harmful antibiotics which did little. I used all kinds of soaps but saw no improvement. I tried different diets and saw no change. I stopped worrying about it some point,my breakouts now are less common. I never tried Accutane since I was worried about all those crazy side effects.

I have found that strong acids like vinegar, benzoyl peroxide and rubbing alcohol as well as some minutes of daily sun exposure seem to help with drying up pimples and preventing new ones.

Here is my story. As a teenager, I developped severe cystic acne all over my upper arms, shoulders, most of my back, thighs, buttocks and most of my face. I had a few around my neck and stomach as well but fairly none on my chest. I also believe that I was afflicted with folliculitis in combination with acne that went undiagnosed. The worst boils I ever got were on my back close to my spine. Those were quite painful and large.

The condition has left me with slightly small raised white scars all over my back, shoulders, jawline, thighs, buttocks and upper arms. I still breakout with fairly new cysts on these areas every week or so although it is not as severe as 15 years ago. I have researched extensively on the subject and learned that these scars can be classed as anything from hypertrophic scarring or perifollicular elastolysis. They go by other namessuch asmid dermal elastolysis or popular acne scars and may be related to another skin disease known as anetoderma. Ihave a combination of different acne scarson my body.

My face has several scars mostly dents from previous cysts but their appearance seems to have gotten better with time. The holes have filled up a littleover the years and most people won't notice unless under certainlights.I still get occasional pimples on my face but they heal fast and don't leave scars no more.As you guys know, these dentsgo by many names : atrophic scars, ice pic scars or boxcar scars. I don't have any rolling scars which is a blessing. I believe rolling scars are the worst type of acne scarringto have.

I am very conscious about my acne scars and often won't take off my shirt in public. I avoid swimmingpools. I avoid shaving because I get pimples aka folliculitis right after. I often travel and like beaches,but I find most people don't realize myscars are there. It's mostly in my head.

I believe everyone has a scar that they would love to get rid of. I have many scars from injuries and unexpected accidents as well but I don't mind these.

Reading about SkinTE, Sunogel, BioMED Birch, Cotsarelis' research, Neofam, Renova, etc, gives me hope about eliminating the left overs of my cysts.

There are many teenagers and young adults out there that are emotionally crippled by severe acne. I don't believe any teenager or young adult should be scarred for life by boils or cysts.

I am very hopeful that a researcher will crack the code one day and provide relief to manyout there who suffer from severe disfigurement or missing limbs. I believe that humans can regenerate but mother nature has stopped us from doing so because somehow she knew we would be unstoppable. For now, we are not there yet. We need to realize many of these startups may fail to deliver.

We should learn to accept our scars and enjoy life starting now. These years will not come back. The scars do improve with time and people do understand our ordeal. There are many people out there with acne scars with succesful careers and nobody ever says a word abouttheir scars spare few shallow narrow minded individuals.

I hope I made some of you feel better about your acne scars.

It really seems like PolarityTE will present the desired results. If we see super results tomorrow, waiting will no longer be a problem because we can be sure that they aee able to treat acne scars if they wre able to get amazing results on these severe injuries.

Swanson clearly said to Tano in the interview that the margins are not visible to the naked eye. Maybe if you get reaaaaallly close. Its the same like your pores. They are not visible from distancr and if you get closer and closer you see them.

Tomorrow is a big day guys.

A hairdresser once touched my scar in a way by which she tried to tell me she wasn't disturbed/bothered by it which was nice.

the problem with margin is that it form from all sides of scar where it joins native skin so it kinda be like a circular ring around regenrated skin ....

buy who knows maybe it just a microscopic thing and we unable to see it with naked eye

anyway waiting to see pics from skinTe.....hope they release some today

Yes today is a big day! (We hope)...in a matter of hours PolarityTe will present SkinTe. They say on Facebook page they will present an overview so I hope they dont just say everything we already have been told. They really need to present something substantial or people will start losing hope. Im worried they will just show more early healing photos if any at all. They say early stage healing for human photos at 49 days (7 weeks) and say mid stage healing at day 54 for pigs strangely. I think we havent seen enough photos yet especially later stage healing because they want to compile them all for a presentation like this one or in 2 weeks.

Asides from early stage photos of horriffic wounds which I still believe are Impressive the testimonies from Doctors, patients and a young patients mother saying it grows skin like magic and looks amazing have been nothing but positive. I havent heard any negative reports as yet other then from people who have never seen SkinTe, used SkinTe or spoken with anyone who has used it.

The stock price has climbed over $30 so maybe something big is brewing. Im not convinced the margin will be the only scar tissue left after treatment. If you see some of the pig models photos it looks more like 80% regenerated skin. Still amazing if it cant quite regenerate 100% first go... the left over or reduced scarring can be treated again. The key is it regenrates normal skin not whether its a one and done procedure.

I watched the presentation. Can i say that the black persons leg looks amazing at 12 weeks! They said Skinte remodels for a year so i guess its a 1 full year for full regeneration scarless. They also said they are getting paid for the product now in the regional release. 2 years i reckon for cosmetic stuff.

What I'm interested in is why is there such a big difference between the results on the child (chest injury) and the man (leg injury)? The dermascopic pictures of the leg are nearly completely similar in appearance to natural skin, whereas the pictures of the chest are clearly different from natural skin. You can tell from the pictures taken farther away as well. The leg is on its way to looking normal, whereas the chest seems like it's not going to look natural even when it's fully healed. Worth noting that the leg has been healing for a lot less time than the chest. The leg had been healing for 12 weeks when picture was taken, while the chest, at least in the pinch video has been healing for 6 months.

without seeing the results i do think the leg was a fresh wound. The young boys chest had only partially removed top layers of damaged skin so he still uas scar tissue under skin.

where can we find a link to watch it again if possible?

what slide number?...The chest results dont concern me as much because its comparing to split thickness grafts so final results shouldt be as impressive. But then they took a full thickness biopsy from chest if im correct and it shows full regeneration...how can that be if they only did partial removal?

its all blurry for me...cant even read text on slides

I did think that with the chest but the surrounding area of the skinte 'square' is all skin graft if you look closely so it wouldnt look anything like eachother because thats not the childs native skin. It says the child was burnt from neck down that whole side. Also if you clock what they say about skin graft it is a sheet of kertatin cells that then turns into scar tissue so the child didnt have a full thickness sample to remove in the first place he literally would have had graft then potentially fat or muscle underneath. Because the sorrounding area was all scar tissue i doubt the blood flow was as good as the leg sample. Maybe that explains it? The chest is a demo of laxity which if you have ever felt a skin graft, looks impressive in terms of function.

I think what some people have said is right though, i dont think you can compare skin graft samples to acne scar potential unless a complete graft was removed and skinte was put with all magins touching healthy skin.
