People are so utterly stupid. I don't shut up anymore if people make remarks about my skin which actually happens rarely but I lash out at them and point their faults whatever they may be. They deserv...

Thank you for the compliment CA! , I never really learnt to shape eyebrows or put on makeup the "professional way". I'm just trying to imitate what I saw in Cosmopolitan. most of it is improvisation...

[attachmentid=5065] trying to show the real depth of my scars .. kind of off topic, but how are you doing your eye brows? They look amazing! mine are like balding caterpillars

Please lah!!! For goodness sake, I once had been using retin-A for 5-6 months and no improvements was ever observed. If I were a millionaire, I would sue the manufacturer of Retin-A till he goes bankr...

Thank you very much CA and James.. I notice that the exoderm has made my skin smoother (after a year of slow, gradual healing), and dermabrasion has made my cheeks look rather odd in comparison with p...

CA: I'm sorry to have written so much crap without first asking how your condition really is... I never really felt pretty before and I don't now (first because of acne then because of scars) so I gue...

Hey CA! The pictures I took don't show how bumpy my skin really is. When I said "orange-peel texture", I meant it literally -- because when u look at an orange, it's shiny and not as smooth as an a...

  stts: does the picture you post give an accurate portrayal of the "orange peel" texture? It looks just like alot of pores to me and my cheeks are just like that, and I never had dermabrasion. ...

here are some photos to show the uneveniness in skin tone and texture [attachmentid=5013][attachmentid=5014] when you say orange peel, do you mean if you run your fingers across it, it feels bum...

Hi Sword and BA (or is it CA?), Just updating my 'progress'... if you can call it that. Okay, I won't be so negative from the start. The truth is, compared to 5+ months ago, my skin looks much mo...

BA, Hey you changed your screen name! But I like the new name, CA is a happier name than BA. If I can't find love and happiness because of big scarred pores then my life is sad to begin with. ...

BA, Sorry for the late reply, I was away for a few weeks. Glad to hear you are somewhat satisfied with your progress. I on the other hand am sure my demarcation will blend. Not only do I have vis...

ho hum. So yeah, I took a GOOD look under some heavy duty flurescent light. So the pores SEEEM to have improved, whereas the area seems seems somewhat darker than the other side. Though that *may* be ...

Sword, Hopeful, how are you guys?     I don't know if i am fooling myself or it's a trick of lighting, but I've had a slight but rather shocking improvement in my skin. Almost exactly a year...

I bet your demarc does not end in a perfect curve unless you used a ruler to apply the acne med? Take care. that brought a chuckle (so rare these days, alas). I don't have a demarc line so ...

Hi Sword,   Long time since you posted on this thread. How are things?   Anyhow, I was talking with a colleague, and he stood up to illustrate a point while I remained sitting down, so...

Hi blotchy_asian If that's true, then it was Y's (I refuse to call him a doctor) ethical responsibility to refuse to perform the procedure on you guys. I had pore scars all over my face (stil...

sword and hopeful:   From your numerous posts, I gathered neither of you had even moderate scarring prior to the dermabrasion. If that's true, then it was Y's (I refuse to call him a doctor) ethi...

Hi sword, I been reading your posts for a long time because demarcation lines are what I have been struggling with as well, alhtough mine are not from dermabrasion. I suffer from facial redness as wel...
