Probably dehydration like the above poster said. I dont drink but it has happened to me when I am very dehydrated and my skin looks horrendous.

No, but scars everywhere else. And I mean everywhere. I have very little healthy skin left.

You can send pictures in a personal message on here. You can just go to my profile and send me a message with the picture attached.

Do you have a picture? If they aren't noticeable, it's honestly best to leave them alone. I know that's not what you want to hear, but many people on here have pursued scar treatments for minor scars ...

MSM cream temporarily plumps up and smooths out texture. Dimethicone is one of the ingredients that helps with that.

Scars on the nose are difficult to treat. Do you have them anywhere else on your face?

Stayed the same unfortunately. I use skin plumping topicals now to help make them less noticeable and it makes a huge difference. I can send you a picture, I also have one in my gallery but it's only ...

All collagen induction treatments will widen your scars, but they will be shallower and will blend better with the rest of your skin. Subcision and fillers are really the only scar treatments that bas...

They can change in appearance from day to day. When I first wake up for example mine are almost gone, then later in the idea when my face isnt as bloated they are back. It looks more like a persisten...

I get that you're trying to be helpful, but you sound a lot like I did my first few years of acne when I thought slathering vitamins on my face would cure my acne and scars. It doesn't work like that....

Uhm, no. You need to do your research on the causes of acne scars. They are caused by serious inflammation from cystic acne. Picking at them can increase inflammation and thus worsen scarring but are ...

I've had what I thought was hyper pigmentation for years after cystic acne. Turns out most of them are flat scars that somewhat resemble hyper pigmentation, but under bad lighting are ever so slightly...

So true. I always emphasize how important acceptance is when it comes to scars. Yes, there are treatments, and they can be improved significantly, but there definitely has to be at least a certain lev...

I suppose it depends on the severity of the scarring. When I go out in public I immediately become a social experiment. You wouldn't believe some of the things that have been said to me by strangers. ...

Hyaluronic acid is in a lot of skincare products. CeraVe moisturizing lotion has it as well as other skin plumping ingredients. It also helps to add a few drops of some type of oil (almond, jojoba and...

Julian, I have hypertophic scars when I wrinkle my forehead, just like yours. I have no idea why that is but it's weird. I've done suctioning on those scars and it seemed to have helped them not to ra...

Scars almost always change shape with collagen induction treatments. The newly formed collagen essentially stretches out the scars in different directions. Google before and after pictures of acne sca...

I'm going to be honest, if you had a bad reaction to lasers and TCA that's a sign you should be careful pursuing any other treatments. Needling or a series of saline injections (to stretch the scar ti...

This is a good idea. I haven't met anyone on here who lives close enough to make that happen though ): I know this may never happen... but would anyone be interested in a meet up one day in the far...

Rob, I also think you should do subcision. Your scars are perfect for it.

The story is sad, but in reality, there's no such thing as a medication without risks. Supplements and "natural" herbs can even kill you or cause serious long term health problems. Licorice root is a ...

When you say scars, do you mean post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (red marks) or actual acne scars that are pitted? People often confuse the two.

Julian, maybe try waiting two months before needling again and see if there are changes to the scars until then. It could very likely be caused by needling but it could also be from something else. I...

You want to get the clear-white one. The texture pad is essential because it makes it looks like human skin...otherwise it looks unnatural. I would order the texture pad first, try it with the latex a...
