Fractional but not super aggressive as my scars are mild mate

i had 2 - co2 (100% ablative) spot treatments done and for the first few days the skin is pink (like you scraped your skin) and it oozes a yellow fluid then once that is done its just pink. you have t...

I am soon to have a test patch of this treatment done... How long is the down time in peoples experiences? I know people have said a couple of weeks but would it be possible to go straight back to wo...

Good news, again! I went for an appointment with the laser clinic at Salford Royal yesterday. The guy was great and took time to explain my options. He said that he is happy to do a test patch but ...

Hey! Wow that's brilliant news! My acne has gone soooooo much better since December thank God! Will be on month 4 whenever they decide to book me in. Salford have been SO annoying with appointments .....

I have an appointment on June 26th to discuss having laser treatment

I should also add that Dr. Pillay contributed to getting this appointment, A LOT! He described my personality as pleasant in the letter which he said helps and even suggested he'd made my scarring out...

Just a quick update on this! After a couple of months of waiting, I now have an appointment on the 26th June to discuss getting the laser treatment

I got accutane on the NHS, as do thousands of people every year in the UK. Accutane is not like other drugs; it's dangerous. No offense but I think you'd be stupid to take it without the supervision ...

I know this is a big no no but lets face it, people do it (rightly or wrongly) What sites have people used to get the drug in the UK? The waiting list in the UK is ridiculous and the site I used to...

I don't use shaving cream I use a beard trimmer as shaving normally irritates my skin too much. I think I'm irritating it by pressing too hard but the say after I have a mountain of spots which seem ...

Apologies that this is in here but the shaving section isn't looked at much! I am mostly clear of acne most of the time. I use s stubble trimmer and always shave my stubble at 1mm. I always leave it ...

Feeling pretty down again... seems like i never have a day where my skin doesn't break out lately, my back and chest included. Does anyone here have experience of going to see a doctor on the NHS (uk)...

Use Jojoba oil. great for acne prone skin. Thank me later I used it for the first time last night and it is AWFUL! It made my skin itch and had broke me out and left red blotches all over my face!! ...

When I took Roaccutane for the first time I saw nothing until about month 3. I have never had thinning hair thankfully and no mood swings because of the drug (don't get yourself hung up on that becaus...

You won't get it yet on the 8th day, especially on 20 m/g mate

I've invested in some Jojoba oil. How much do you tend to use? A tiny bit or is it a case of slapping it on?

I have been referred to Dr V Madan at Salford Royal laser department! Not sure of a date yet but they said it will follow shortly. The letter they sent didn't do my confidence much good to be honest ...

I'm not sure yet as I have to speak to them about that and I'm not even sure where it will be until the appointment comes through   What is weird about the said doctor is I had 2 tiny spots when...

Just got back from my appointment. The good news is I have a referral to the laser clinic!   I had some bloods done as I keep flushing and they were supposed to be sent to my derm but the thick ...

Is Jojoba Oil similar to Cocoa Butter where it is really difficult to remove or is it much lighter?

Thanks for replies. I don't think we have first-aid but Cetaphil is obviously available online. Is it as good as people make out? Is it greasy?

Vaseline is also an option. By the time I wash it off my whole face it makes my skin very dry as it's a tough task removing it! E45 cream is the best I've found after trying hundreds of products but...

Try A-DERMA skin care cream. I use it, it's really hydrating. Love it! It contains a form of oats called 'Rhealba' (not a clue what that is), but it's good for the skin. I get it from Boots. There's a...

No I didn't know they had a acne department... did he explain what they do different to the dermatology department? I think it's Dr. Fitzgerald's department because when I was wondering where my appoi...
