I stay 95 percent clear with a regimen of BP and Tazorac. The problem is once every 3-4 weeks, I get a giant, underground cyst or nodule that leaves a pitted scar. I am also almost 26 and tired of f...

That's actually a good question and something that I have wondered myself. With all of the pain treatment options out there, why don't doctors take advantage of them so people don't have to suffer do...

Matt, I am considering buying the Reviva Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid Vitamin C Ester and DMAE Cream that you recommended. 1. I still apply BP during the day and Tazorac at night. if i get this product I...

My biggest regret is that I never went on accutane. I am now 25, still have persistent acne which I have to stick to a strict routine to keep under control, and scarring which I now have to take a ri...

I keep going back and forth in my mind over getting DeepFX done to treat my boxcar and icepick scars. I would be getting about 12 scars spot treated across my forehead, temples, and cheeks. My docto...

Yea she said that for me to get the results that I want that she would have to use a high setting. This is such a stressful decision as so much can go wrong with lasers I feel like but I really want ...

From what I have read, DeepFX and Fraxel Re:pair seem to be pretty similar procedures for acne scarring. At the moment, I have an appointment to get DeepFX done in a few weeks. My derm told me that ...

Just out of curiosity, why did you think the fermented cod liver oil was just a bandaid fix? I was considering getting some myself but it is very expensive so I don't want to go out and spend a bunch ...

I would also recommend weening yourself off topicals. I stopped my retinoid cold turkey and my acne this summer was bad. I agree that a good diet is a good and that natural face care is great but re...

i don't think coming off bp will be a problem, assuming your diet is good. i did the same, switched from slathering 10% bp all over twice a day to just spot treating as i got clearer from diet. no a...

Matt, I am going to be getting subcision done on my cheeks in a few weeks. I have not been able to read every post in your thread but I noticed that you said that icing after your 2nd subcision resu...

At least I believe that my diet changes have worked. I am 25 years old and have had acne for a good 12 or 13 years. Cysts, nodules, papules, etc. I have used just about everything and have found th...

I also use cod liver oil and am a bit worried of possible breakouts if I have to go off it for future excisions or Total FX. I suppose the only real concern would be increased bleeding, which most lik...

In a month I am getting subcision and DeepFX spot treatment for about 10 scars spread throughout my face. I am still extremely prone to breakouts but am 100% clear of acne and have been for a while n...

I just noticed that your cod liver oil also has butter oil, which is supposedly a very good source of vitamin K. So I really wouldn't worry. It's good to hear you've got results with it. I think I may...

Hey man, you told me about this cod liver oil stuff via PM a while ago, remember? I've had it on my list of things to try ever since, just waiting until I can save up some money to get it (had to spen...

This past September, I finally found the missing piece to my acne puzzle. I am still using BP and Tazorac but the addition of Blue Ice Royal from Green Pasture (combination of Fermented Cod Liver Oil...

After 15 years of sometimes cystic acne, I was finally able to find a solution which didn't involve Accutane. I am clear now but am left with some scarring. I consulted with my dermatologist regardi...

I have finally made the decision to go on Accutane and will be starting 2 weeks from today. At the moment, I only have 2 actives on my face and 2 actives on my neck so I do not qualify as "severe rec...

Keep in mind (and I'm a girl) that it's not as important for guys to have clear skin as for girls. A little acne or (rough, imperfect skin) actually makes a guy seem more masculine and less like a boy...

This is what I'm dealing with now. My acne breakout last year (along with an abusive relationship) caused me to essentially develop OCD regarding my skin/face. My skin was pretty bad last January; cov...

Do any of you feel like you will be never satisfied with how your skin looks or your looks in general? From January until July, my acne was the worst that it has ever been. My combo of Differin and ...

Awesome improvement. LOL the chart has me dying. Looks like something that I would do.
