NearlyDefeated

Hi! I dont have acne scars, but i have steroid atrophy on my face after using topical steroids. My skin is very thin, it's like a paper. Had anyone isolagen or LaViv treatment here? Derma said that i...

I agree with Dudley, I cannot see any scarring in your pictures. It looks to me like a little bit of active acne and maybe pigmentation. This is good news for you as these are small issues that a de...

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...

Freshstart, that is the problem I find with Realself. It is a fantastic site in terms of reading about people's real experiences, but the contradicting information from the doctors is head messing! ...

Hi Taurus May I ask what type of peels you had and at what strength? This is part of a route I am considering, but the consensus seems that peels don't do a great deal. Did the peels help with the ...

This one is a tricky one as everyone is different. A lot of people, (myself included) think dairy can affect acne greatly and sugar another major culprit. I think the key is to try an elimination di...

Hi Perigon I have read your previous posts and I can honestly say that I think your skin looks wonderful. A person with flawless skin could analyse themselves under harsh lighting and even their ski...

Nearly 40 here and been through all of these! The killer for me is on the very rare occassion I forget about my scars and am in a good mood and I catch them in a mirror and bang - back to reality. ...

I totally agree with others when they say how valuable your posts are. It is so admirable of you to come back and give people hope as many do not. You have inspired me to take the brave step and go ...

I agree. I personally think a vaccine to prevent acne will be the major breakthrough and in 40/50 years acne will be a thing of the past.   This post is endless, isn't it? It will end...

You keep shouting about "scientific data". There have been many trials and many papers containing "scientific data". Data submitted from laser trials claimed a 98% reduction in scars. How many 98% ...

Seabs I was simply stating my personal opinion. Until evidence is presented in the form of totally regenerated previously acne scarred human skin I am not holding onto false hope. This is a message...

I agree with Enoughisenough. When we are in despair, it is not unusual to get excited about new 'miracle' treatments. The fact is that a treatment that can regenerate severely scarred skin to its or...

While searching the internet I came across a new 'Revolutionary Treatment' developed by Scientists in Belgium called Remescar that claims to reduce stretch marks by 50% in under a month. A 32 year o...

  What is it about the fillers that worries you? The main thing is a temporary effect. I wouldn't have the finances or the mental energy to keep having to have the procedure done all m...

Keauty Thank you for your heartwarming post and sharing your story. I've also read good things about sea salt. A male friend of mine years back found all his back acne cleared while swimming in th...

Kerxo I really hope you managed to attend your first day and it went well. I can relate to your post regarding anxiety. I have been out of work now for nearly two years and the thought of starting ...

Hi Srammer, thanks for the info. Interesting stuff. It does seem promising, but appears to be for fresh wounds to promote healing so I don't know how this will fit in with older damaged tissue. I ...

What is it about the fillers that worries you? The main thing is a temporary effect. I wouldn't have the finances or the mental energy to keep having to have the procedure done all my life. I wo...

Hi Cvd I am sorry I can not offer you any advice as I am also battling with many of the same things you are. I am nearly 40 and still get cysts (and recently huge blackheads). I sympathise with yo...

Enerjet does sound quite promising, but the filler part does worry me somewhat. Although it is great to hear of a success story. no-hope - how are you feeling about your treatment now? Your posts o...

Thanks for the advice Pumpkin, appreciated. It would be useful to hear from others that have seen him personally yes. I would not have a laser treatment regardless as there are just too many bad res...

Thank you for the post Inspired. I am sorry this didn't work out for you. The acne scar journey sure is tiresome sometimes.

its currently not possible to make scars dissapear with laser especially deep scars. its all hype to bring in clients if anything. I agree. I don't believe there is any treatment at present that ca...

I have researched acne scar treatments for many years now and find it a daunting task trying to find genuine reviews on professionals who perform such treatments. I recently came across a Dr Tapan Pa...
