BEST WAYS TO GET RID OF ACNE SCARS (SPOTS)??


I am 19 && HAVE DARK SKIN!!! i wash my face twice a day. I also take acne medication, and put differin (perscribed acne cream) on every day...does not seem to matter i always get another 3 pimples by the next day. If i dont pop, if i do it also doesnt matter they leave this dark little mark on my face for me to remember them by. im sick of all the make up, and i feel uncomfortable to go swimming, work out, or do other things that might remove make up and show my marks. Does anyone know of a way to help the process of fading these marks? I also recently worked in a factory so had saftey classes...and yup right on my nose where the saftey glasses i got acne..and now these two embaressing DARK marks...of course they dont hide with make up..to dark. ughh. so frusturating. HELLLPPPP

It sounds as though you need an acne medication that works better for you, so that you stop getting the acne that is causing the scars. I highly recommend you get the book Breaking Out by Lydia Preston, which is all about acne and details every acne treatment available, both on prescription and over-the-counter. This will help you understand your options.

If your doctor will not offer you more effective treatments, ask to be referred to a dermatologist. Ordinary doctors are not skin experts! Once you have your acne under control, you can discuss with the dermatologist how to treat the scarring.

Good luck x

Questions about Differin acne cream and Mederma scar solution?


Im on differin acne cream, is it safe to put mederma on my face that is being treated with differin? Also, will mederma even work for acne scars? If not, could someone point me in the direction of something that will?

I think using Clearpores and other surface treatment work temporarily. I used to have a lot of acne just like you (all over my body, not just my face) but I find that rubbing all those lotions and cleansers is too much trouble.

Anyway, I came across a study that shows that people from other cultures that eat a good diet almost NEVER have acne...even when they are going through puberty. But as soon as they changed their diets, acne started to flare up like crazy.
