Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Acne has left me with horrible skin

Let me start out by saying I had acne for 16 years, from the ages of 11-27. That is in the past now but I'm left with horrible skin.

Having acne for so long has left me with uneven skin tone - I'm talking HYPERpigmentation, HYPOpigmentation, red blotches and a few scars thrown in for good measure.

I had Vbeam done recently and it hasn't done much. I looked terrible after the procedure - my cheeks were bubbled and swollen, I was covered in blood and I had that awful purpula that you get on high settings. I literally ran home from the hospital so no one could see me. It is calming down after two weeks but I'm not seeing any results. I'm gutted and I don't even know what to do anymore. Should I try fraxel, C02? Both of these are pretty brutal and the down time will not be good.

I just want to look normal. All I want is an even skin tone. I had acne for so long and I'm still suffering even after it has gone.

I feel you. I have had stupid red marks and it has ruined my freshman school year for me. I literally don't even leave my house unless I really have to. My birthday is coming up and I don't even wanna celebrate because I'm just so depressed and hopeless. Just try to use healing products for now to help your skin; don't irritate it. Try to live more healthy because that plays a big role in healing. Just remember you're not alone in this 🙂
