Thanks for sharing your advice! Is salycilic acid considered an exfoliant because I have started using it on my nose. Have any of you guys had them professionally extracted? Does it leave holes regard...

I've been breaking out in blackheads on my nose and cheeks all of a sudden and normally I wouldn't bother with the tiny things but I've heard that they can scar too? I definitely do not want dozens of...

Bump...anyone with facial/extractions experience?

I've just broken out in a bunch of blackheads all over my nose. They are steadily growing and I'm concerned because my blackheads sometimes leave scars. I want to get a facial where they can be extrac...

I too have been noticing tiny hairs on the blackheads and pores on my nose! No clue what to do about it though.

I've heard subcision is more for boxcar/rolling scars. TCA sounds like its the best bet.

Problems from dermabrasion tend to be because the doctor goes too deep right? The doctor I researched does dermabrasion for wrinkles a lot, and I know acne scars are deeper, but mine aren't too deep. ...

How long have you been using it? Retin a sloughs off your skin faster, which causes it to reveal more acne (that would have come anyway). I broke out horridly too, around the three month mark, but it'...

Did my first vitalize peel back in October, and have had great results (scars faded, little to no breakouts...also use Differin gel at night and prescription sulfur wash). After seeing the great resul...

Right so. I have some ugly scars on my nose. I've been researching dermabrasion and since my scars are at most moderate I think it will probably give me great results. However, I've heard good and bad...

It took me a couple weeks for the peeling to stop. Moisturizing really helps keep it down though. I'm intriuged that it may help small icepicks. I have a few icepicks on my cheeks which I assume are n...

Hello! My acne is thankfully being quite calm right now-still there, but much meeker. It's left my face looking a mess though, with red marks and shallow scars all over my cheeks. I've been thinking o...

bump for nose scars, do fillers not work too? They might, but unfortunately I don't feel comfortable having things injected into my skin. It just creeps me out and they have to be constantly refi...

I guess you could try using an acne medication around your mouth that kills bacteria like benzoyl peroxide or an antibiotic. Or you could just wash your mouth as soon as you are able to after kissing ...

Topicals like Retin a help fade redness but it still takes a loooong time. For faster results, microdermabrasions and chemical peels can help but it still takes several treatments.

Chemical peels, which come in different levels of mild to moderate, basically peel off layers of your skin, which greatly helps pigmentation problems. Microdermabrasions also help with red marks but ...

For PIH chemical peels would be a less costly, effective, and safer procedure. But unless your scars are very shallow, they won't help with scarring unless they're the really really deep peels, which ...

It is hard to tell. Hm. I would say they're mostly red marks maybe a couple are slightly depressed, but only very very slightly. It should become easier to tell once the redness fades.

I'm no expert, so I can only speak from my own experience...I've had tiny little nicks in my skin from small acne fill in over a couple months. But anything more than that doesn't show much improveme...

I have those kinds of scars on my cheeks too! I'm thinking maybe a few medium strength peels will help soften/reduce them and get rid of the redness. I don't think they go away on their own, even less...

Unfortunately red marks take a loooong time to fade, even with topicals. I've been using Retin a for PIH for months and it's shown very little improvement. The best thing I can recommend for acne mark...

It's harder to tell the difference with the pigmentation still there, but they appear to be actual scars. They;re not that bad though, so I'd take the above person's advice and get some kind of peel. ...

I just want to warn you guys if you have moderate scarring that Vbeam is very superficial of a treatment. In order to get the most effective results a ablative treatment is recommended. I have done a ...

What else does the VBeam help with? I have red marks, very shallow scars and blotchiness. Could that help? Do you think it's better than microdermbrasion?

I know how it feels. I used to be a good student with good grades and a good athlete too. I had acne since i was 16 and it has been like 4 years now. and boy it changed my life, completely. It doesn't...
