NearlyDefeated

I was stood in the supermarket queue with all my greens, wheat free products and fruit looking in people's trolleys. All these people with beautiful 'normal' skin with not one green in sight and fro...

Yes, very true. When I started on my journey (or should I say nightmare), I didn't even have the internet. We are so lucky in that respect these days. Especially with these boards where we can shar...

Dermarolling has got to be one of the most frustrating things.. As a few weeks after the temporary results start to subside and your skin sinks again! Does anyone get days where you feel like giving u...

It's **** like this that spoil these boards. I simply cannot believe anyone would be so naive to think that fasting for 40 days will heal scars. Added to this, I beleive from what I have read, your...

I am having the same dilemma. Like you said, there are thousands of sites now selling peels/rollers/miracle cures - it is so frustrating! Added to this problem is never being able to trust reviews o...

Mike I am really crossing my fingers here that you have success with this treatment. I could relate so much to your original post. A fellow Brit here routing for you every step of the way!

Anyone notice that the female with both boxscar and icepick scars ended up with no scars? Seems too good to be true, (but secretly excited). Thinking on it, of all the treatments I have researched ov...

Hi Summer I am following this thread - fellow Brit here with the same issues. I hope you keep us informed on your journey, I am searching for a fantastic Derm/Surgeon in the UK, but it sometimes see...

Interesting stuff. I was only thinking about this lately. I remember reading about 10 years ago about an acne vaccine that would be given to school age children and didn't hear anything else since. ...

Bump. I wonder if anyone else has gone down the micro silicone droplet route. The results do look amazing. Scary stuff though! [Removed]

Battle I read that the tinned fish in olive oil is good for you, but to avoid vegetable oil. Morrisons/Tesco in UK do a selection of tinned fish in olive oil.

I agree. I can't see anything at all to worry about, your skin looks virtually flawless to me. You are a handsome young lad and should be enjoying your life.

Cut to the chase and go directly to Fraxel Re:pair. Re:pair is the gold standard among ablative fractionalized CO2 lasers. I don't sugar coat my responses anymore. You need Re:pair. I'm glad lase...

I've read some nonsense on these boards, but this is by far superior.

I did purchase it and used it on a raised scar hoping it would flatten it somewhat. I didn't expect it to do anything else. It didn't make a difference. The stick itself is tiny and does not last l...

Thanks for keeping us updated on this, I really prey you are happy with your results.

I have followed this thread from the beginning and I think the same now as I did then. A marketing ploy, just does not feel genuine at all.

This confuses me also and I hope somebody is knowledgeable in this area as I have read such contradicting information. From the results on here, the easiest to treat seem to be rolling scars. The ha...

Apparently, a study conducted by a Dr. Lit-Hung Leung was very successful in treating acne with high doses of vitamin B5 (10 grams throughout the day). I remember researching this and found a lot of ...

If this board had been around when I was 15, I would have begged, borrowed, stolen (okay maybe not that) and found a way to get my acne under control. I would have exhausted every option. Likewise. ...

I have been researching LaViv and it looks promising with regards to its safety. It seems to work similiar to fillers, but does not carry the associated side effects these may cause. There are not m...

This is brilliant advice. You really do need to do everything you possibly can to see a Derm to clear up your acne and prevent scarring because the scars will be much more difficult to deal with - bo...

That's really helpful, thank you. I have stocked up on vitamins and I have ordered sunscreen and the product from Reviva Labs. It's always better to go by recommendation than trusting the brands own...

I was so excited to actually find a company that sold bentonite clay in the UK, but it was a complete disaster for me. It is extremely drying, more than anything I have ever used in my lifetime. Two...

honestly i think starting low like what people said is a waste of time and money if you gonna start then do it at a medium level or something that will show better results then low 35% will not be a p...
