Spa Heal Acne
help! MASSIVE breakout after going to the spa...?
I went to a scandinavian spa over the weekend. The kind where you go into hot baths, then cold plunges in 15 minute cycles with the occasional session in a steam room. I also got a full body massage. I was told this was supposed to help rid the body of toxins and be rejuvinating. But now that I'm home, a couple days later - I am experiencing a MASSIVE acne breakout. I'm talking hundreds of little pimples all over my face. I've never had acne like this, I've had the occasional pimple and black head...but this is rediculous! It's an emergency because I have engagement photos in 4 days!!! I need some advice...asap :S !!!
What can I do to help them at least heal some before the pictures?
also..what's a good moisturizer that doesn't do more harm then good?
its part of getting all the toxins out of the body, just think all of that was deep in your skin. Gross. but it will go away quickly, should be gone in time for your photos. dont poke and pick at it, just wash your face in the morning and at night, put on moisturizer and try not to cake the makeup on to cover it.

holes on my face from cystic acne. Will dermabrasion help?
I went to a medi spa last year and had laser tretaments done. These treatments didn't do a thinkg for the pock marks. what a waste of money.
So being EXTREMELY depressed aboout my appearance and not dating because I am scared of rejection, I went to a plastic surgeon. He thinks dermabrasion may help. But he said it is hard to guess at what the results will be like. he said if I decide to do the dermabrasion, I should take 3 weeks, preferably 4 weeks, off from school/work, avoid sun, etc to allow my skin to heal properely.
I want to do it if there is a chance it will help, but I am so fed up with spending so much $$ on stuff, only to be let down. If I get this done, not only will it cost a lot of money to get it done, but the time off from work is going to cost me as well.
Depending on the number, type -- hypertrophic(raised) versus atrophic (depressions) -- and how widespread the scarring of the face is, you have several treatment options from what is called "acne surgery" to chemical peels to injection fillers to dermabrasion or additional laser treatments.
"Acne surgery" is where the scars are actually individually removed and skin is stitched back together. Of course, this isn't a great option if you have a very large number of scars or if your scars are more scattered over your face and not the severe "ice-pick" scars.
If you do have isolated but severe "icepick" scars (where your skin is relatively good overall but you have a dozen to a few dozen well-defined scars), then you might also benefit from what are called "injection fillers". I would recommend Restylane. This a long-term filler which not only fills in the "depressions" in your skin but also causes the skin the re-generate over time. (Other injection fillers have more temporary effects.)
If your scars are more like "stretch marks" (where the skin appears stretched out like a rubber band) rather than "ice-pick" scars, or if you just have a large number of shallow/superficial scars, then chemical peels, laser treatments, or dermabrasion probably are a better choice of treatment for you since the entire facial area might require treatment. (Laser treatments typically require multiple treatments -- usually a series of three, once per month, for any degree of improvement -- and results come over time, typically seen after 1/2 a year.)
The *last* thing you want to do is rely on a a "medi-spa" for treatment (even if run by a physician). Unless you actually see the physician, a medi-spa will provide you with whatever you are willing to spend money on -- whether it will benefit you or not. Only have performed whatever a dermatologist or plastic surgeon specifically recommends for treatment.
You may want to visit a dermatologist for a 2nd opinion -- dermabrasion can definitely be a valid treatment for acne scars, but due to the time required off from work, you may want to pursue injection fillers, two more laser treatments (*maybe* -- get a professional recommendation), and microdermasion. Combination therapy is typically required for the best results. None of these would require any "downtime" or time off from work.
Over time, and with persistence, you can and will see results from the correct treatments from medical professionals and not salons or spas. Good luck!
