For those kind of bumps I think it's best to use a good chemical exfoliator. It sounds a bit harsh but they can be as gentle or strong as you like. salicylic acid is a good one to start off with, it...

  Derms wont talk to you about alternative medicines for acne, I guess they have their checklist of creams, antibiotics, birth control and Accutane. He does seem to have jumped straight in ther...

  Hey it looks a bit more like pityrisporum folliculitis which is more like a infection of the hair follicles and is common on the forehead like you have described, if you google it you will see...

  I had a scab like this last week, I covered it with savlon advanced healing gel, soaked a bit of tissue and put it over the ointment then put a plaster over it to keep it covered and left it. ...

  It's a tough one to call, I think your skin looks more irritated than acne prone, if that makes sense. If it were me I would make a decision between two courses of action. I would either try...

  I don't really know about filling in, I find scars soften with time if you find the right skin care regimen and keep acne under control. Lighting can make all the difference, sometimes I thin...

it does look like it has calmed down a lot in your recent photo which is a good sign that the antibiotics and topical were helping. I don't know too much about the ingredients but is there anyway you...

I know they only really come in the one shade, I would say I am fair/medium and I find that it sort of adjusts to my skin, I like the skin 79 hot pink bb cream as it has a bit more of a matt finish. ...

  I really like bb creams, in particular the Korean ones like Lioele and Skin 79, they are basically tinted moisturisers but I find they give much better coverage and have other benefits thrown ...

  I can't help from experience as I've never had fraxel but anything that traumatises your skin could have the potential to flare up acne. I have read of people getting blister like spots after...

salicylic acid works great on my forehead bumps and clogged pores. I use a serum and apply it under my moisturiser or on its own for more effectiveness.

  I'd say your skin looks pretty great. Guys tend to have thicker texture of skin to girls, and honestly most guys I know have some sort of visible pores going on. It might be to do with testos...

  I wouldn't go near fraxel especially since your skin looks great. Redness always makes skin texture look way worse. What is your skincare routine at the moment?xx

I would not advise anyone to use black salve, just Google it. I know there are extreme cases but the consequences if it goes wrong are horrific!

  I do agree with the principal of your theory. I think the longer a cyst is under your skin the more damage it will do to collagen and result in scaring. I have one small area of scarring on ...

I don't know too much about them but can you not get the warts and verruca frozen off? I think boots does a sort of at home kit for it. Don't let this breakout set you back, sometimes in the process o...

  Hey   I just wanted to start a topic on these amazing BB and CC creams. I used to shy away from the first lot of bb creams released in the UK like the Garnier one, as I thought it would...

  Hey it may be related to your thyroid issue? Maybe read up on low thyroid and acne and see if there is any relation, in the meantime I'd say cutting out the nuts for a few weeks is a good ide...

  I can see a real clear difference between the two sets of pictures. I know you say in person things look worse, but if the camera is showing improvement then there must be improvement in real...

It'll get better. Trust me, I was where you were. I didn't take accutane but birth control and differin, and it was a long hard and depressing road at times. Even when my actives were pretty non ex...

Hey I read all that too about pores, but from my experience, when my skin was dry they were 100x more visible, I thought this was it and that they would never shrink or go away but honestly once my s...

I think that the dryness caused by Accutane make your skin really sensitive and slower to heal so just keep up with the moisturiser and making sure you use and spf on a daily basis as well. Your red ...

I would give it some time after you come off accutane. My skin was like this a couple of years ago and it was mainly cause my dryness and irritattion. Once my skin balanced out and became more hydra...

sorry shouldnt have presumed! I know what you mean it is pretty unfair to guys, I'm not sure if guys can use hormonal treatments, most hormonal acne treatments try to reduce the effects of testosteron...

Have you considered birth control? Acne around the mouth/jaw is usually hormonal and maybe that is why the accutane didn't work out for any length of time. I know my hormonal acne was white heads t...
