thats a long time.u faced any severe side effects? also,are u clear now? I faced no severe side effects. I'm completly clear in terms of acne , but I do have red marks from the inital break out.

If you you had moderate -severe acne for 5 years mabye it's time for you to look into Accutane.If Accutane is not an option try the Regimen. And there is always a way to improve your situation. I have...

I use Differin Cream 0.1% after my accutane. Cream is more for dry skin (it's milder) and the gel is stronger so it's for oily skin. You are afraid of not getting new acne but if you will not use Dif...

I doubt that you can make your own moisturizer , if you live in USA you can get products like Cetaphil moisurizer cream bassicly cheap , I have to pay about 30$ for each cetaphil product.So if you wan...

If you stop taking accutane now , most likely your acne will come back soon. You need to reach a cumulative dose. The minimum cumulative dose is 120mg/kg and the maximum is 150mg/kg(used it case you s...

I miss the severe acne subforum.

The Co2 already has quite some risks , accutane is just going to raise the risk. I'm not sure if it's going to be worth it ,if you said that your scars are mild , you can live with that for a cople of...

Definitely. If you just started out , and your skin is a little irritated/red/ or extra-dry is always a good call to take a day off.

The blood test will show if your taking birth control pills,but it will not show if your taking anti-depressants.The blood test is mostly made for cholesterol levels. Now I can't say : " go with accut...

I envy how nice mineral make up works on your combination dry skin. On my dry is just is so DRY , I have the bare essentual one and whenever I try to apply it I just feel like I'm applying nothing and...

I doubut that it accutally helps cystic acne , it can help acne by reducing/eliminating the redness.But as far as eliminating the pimples I highly doubt that. IF your wondering if it can help acne sca...

Wow , just amazing.I'm so happy that I found your topic I read all 6 pages in this morrning. Yours scars are looking very good so is your skin. I want to get v beam for red marks prior to acne , is a ...

If you want minimal coverage go for a powder foundation or mineral make up like bare minerals or MAC powder foundation. If you still want minimal coverage but don't want to get powder or mineral make ...

I usually use bare minerals from bare essentuals and I simply clease with my Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleaser.If I had dry skin durring that day for some reason I use bio oil and it comes off beautifully.

Obviously for the best result is AHA+ alone ,but the first times or unitl your skin gets use to it ,either use a very small amount of AHA or mix it with moisturizer.

If anything else failed , I would defenetly suggest accutane. Is the only "cure" for acne at the moment. However as you probably know it involves quite a lot of side effects but the most common ones ...

If you went through the co2 2 years ago, now you can try subcision + fillters or subcision + laser. However you said you get 25% improvment after the laser , in acne scars 25% is a lot after only 1 tr...

If you already started the Co2 laser I would say keep doing it . Because the laser is the last step in trating acne scarring(as far as I know) , if you hadn't done laser 'I would say try subcision and...

For the red marks I ussualy give advice to use AHA / BHA along with Differin/Retin-a. You should really reconsider what word "everywhere" means.Your skin looks great.

The red marks after the pimpels are gone is just a good sing of the body's good intention of healing. If the red marks are not depressed , you don't need any tratment. If you want to get rid of them f...

IPL is a good laser for the redness ,but the gold standars is PDL -> V-beam. Anyways both of the lasers are good.
