Acne Scars Treatment

Acne Scars Treatment
best removal treatment for pitted acne scars?

i found 3 on my face the other day i have to get rid of them . i looked it up but dont know which treatment is best for pitted scars not acne scars.
dermabrasion,
chemical peel,
collagen injection,
laser resurfacing,
punch grafts,
autologous fat transfer,

which is the best one ?

Well…it is usually a combination of two or three of the above to get the best results…i.e. Dermabarsion and chemical peels can give good results in only very superficial acne scars. Collagen injections, fat transfer, Co2 Laser resurfacing, filler injections and aptose threads can give better and varying degree of results depending upon the skill of the practitioner.. Mind it ….The skill of the practitioner is very very important in all these treatments , otherwise some times the results are horrible and can rather damage the skin much more than the rugged skin.

Benzoyl Peroxide Acne

Benzoyl Peroxide Acne
does simply applying 5% benzoyl peroxide clear up acne?

So I heard benzoyl peroxide treats acne, and I want to try it. Does anyone else out there have dark acne spots that looks like there’s little pits on their face? I hate it! What products worked for you

things at the drug store that works:

Aveeno positively radiant, you have to use the whole line though or it doesn’t work. They have a spot treatment just for dark marks, its 15 dollars for 1oz, i found a bundle pack of 3 on ebay for $19.

Ambi, there line is just face wash and a spot treatments, it is the one Im currently using. I switched to Ambi from Aveeno, using the entire line and so far so good, I notice the marks fading.

DDF skincare is pretty expensive, I saw there ad in seventeen magazine, they’re spot treatment for dark marks is suppose to be the best but the serum, i think it is 1oz also costs around $40. I also found this one on ebay but for 28 dollars.

Help For Acne

Help For Acne
Acne scarring and large pores-what is the best way to getting rid of them?

I had acne all my life, it is mostly under contol now, with the occasional pimple. I’m now left with scarring, its not terrible, but it is noticable as well as large pores. I want to know the best way of getting rid of them completely. I’ve tried IPL which helped but didnt completely remove the scars. Please can someone help- my sanity depends on you! Thank you!
P.s I dont need to know how to treat the acne- i’ve done this! Just need to know about getting rid of the scars!

Acne can be very mild, resulting in a few lone blemishes, or it can be severe when it occurs on the face, neck, shoulders, chest, and back. Pustules and deeper cysts occur with very severe acne and scarring may result if the condition is not cared for properly. These scars may be visible for a lifetime. Here’s what your can do to prevent these scars from forming, and treat them if they do develop.

Preventing Acne Scars
Never pick or squeeze acne blemishes. This can lead to the spread of acne and the development of acne scars. Instead, there are a number of treatment methods that can be used to care for acne and prevent the development of scars. Herbs such as chamomile, lavender, juniper, bergamot, dandelion root, Echinacea, poke root, witch hazel, and burdock root can be used to reduce toxicity, improve the skin’s condition and treat acne. Vitamin supplements can also be helpful as vitamins A, C, E and B6 are vital for healthy skin. Also, avoid exposing your skin to the sun’s rays. Initially, sun exposure may dry out an acne blemish, but over time, unprotected sun exposure can damage the skin and further aggravate problem acne.

Types of Acne Scars
Medical professionals have developed a acne scarring classification system that aids in the diagnosis and treatment of many acne scars. Scars may be classified as ice pick, boxcar, or rolling.

Acne Scars – Ice pick
As their name implies, ice pick acne scars are thin, sharp scars. The skin looks as though it has been sliced with an ice pick. These scars are narrow, but deep, extending into the deep dermis or subcutaneous layer.
Acne Scars – Boxcar
Unlike ice pick scars, boxcar scars do not taper to a point. Instead, they are round pits that have sharp vertical edges. Skin resurfacing techniques such as dermabrasion or laser resurfacing may be used to treat shallow boxcar scars. Deeper scars require full-thickness treatment techniques.
Acne Scars – Rolling
Rolling scars appear to have a rolling or undulating texture. They are the result of folds in the skin to the subcutaneous tissue below. Rolling scars must be treated by breaking up the fibrous bands that are causing the skin to fold or roll. Subcutaneous incision is the method most commonly used to treat this condition.

Acne Scar Treatment

Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers such as fat, collagen, hyaluronic acid derivatives, and polytheyl-methacrylate microspheres with collagen can be injected into acne scars to raise the surface of the skin and give a smoother look. The injection of dermal fillers does not permanently correct acne scars. The results are temporary, so further injections are necessary.
Punch Excision
Deep acne scars such as ice pick and deep boxcar scars can be treated with the punch excision method. This procedure uses a punch biopsy tool that looks similar to a round, sharp cookie-cutter. It comes in diameters ranging from 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm, and the correct size can be chosen to match the size of the scar. Local anesthesia is used to remove the scar tissue and suture the edges together. If a new scar should develop in the old one’s place, it will now be easier to treat with a skin resurfacing technique.
This technique can also be performed with a skin graft, where the scarred skin is removed and that area is filled with a skin graft taken from behind the ear. Some kind of skin resurfacing technique will still likely be needed to correct any differences in the skin’s color and texture.
Punch Elevation
This method of surgically correcting acne scars uses the same punch tool that is used in the punch excision method. It is used on deep boxcar scars that have sharp edges and normal appearing bases. With the punch elevation method, the base of the scar is excised leaving the walls of the scar intact. The excised base is then sutured to the surface of the skin to fill the void. There are fewer incidences of color and texture differences with this technique and less chance of developing another visible scar.
Subcutaneous Incision
Rolling scars can be treated with subcutaneous incision. This method is used to break up the fibrous bands that cause the skin to roll or appear undulated. Local anesthesia is inserted under the skin with a special beveled needle that remains parallel to the skin’s surface. The needle is then used to gently cut the fibrous bands with a piston like motion. Bruising is likely to occur with this method, but it will usually fade in about one week.
Laser Resurfacing
Laser resurfacing is a popular treatment used to cure many skin defects. Carbon dioxide and YAG lasers are the two most common types used for the laser resurfacing of acne scars. Using the controlled beam of a laser, the top layer of skin is burned to a precise depth. The skin then heals itself by replacing the lost skin with new skin.

Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment

Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Treatment
What is a good alternative to benzoyl peroxide for acne treatment (I am allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide)?

you can try topical antibiotics like tetracycline, or if it’s worse, oral antibiotics. If worse comes to worse, your doctor can prescribe oral isotetrinoin. But that is for severe cases, and if you are female, you need to get a pregnancy test first to rule out pregnancy.

Acne Treatment Reviews

Acne Treatment Reviews
Anybody try this Alpha Hydroxy treatment from Acne.org?

http://www.danielkern.com/product-p/aha-6.htm

Is it worth it?

I use Neutrogena Healthy skin, but it gets a little greasy sometimes – the Acne.org has better reviews.

Yes, I used it. It really is a great product, but its SOOO expensive and extremely difficult to come by here in Ireland.
I just posted advice for someone else about acne. I will copy and paste it to this post now.
The topical advice given on acne.org can be used in conjunction with medication. If the AHA is too expensive, it can be dropped. Its not essential if the medication is doing the job. A regular oil free moisturizer would be fine.

I
Antibiotics- thrimotoprim, 200mg twice a day, and the birth control pill called dianette, which is specifically used for acne because it stops the skin glands producing excess oil. The antibiotics kill the acne producing bacteria.
You can only get these two medications from the doctor. Just go into your doctor and tell her/ him to write you out a prescription for those medications. They will hopefully be happy that they won’t have to think of something!!If your acne is not severe, just ask for the dianette, because the thrimotoprim is strong, and can cause nausea, etc. Even ask for one 200mg per day on the prescription, depending on how bad your acne actually is.
Wash you face twice a day with an OIL FREE wash, preferably with scrub beads in it.
Also buy a cream with Benzoyl peroxide in it. Put this on after you wash your face at night around oily prone areas. When it dries put an oil free moisturiser on.

I am from Ireland, so the name of the drugs might be different in the US. They are usually under different names for some reason. Just google them and you should get the different names for them.

Good luck.

Eczema Natural Remedy

Eczema Natural Remedy
My son suffers from eczema. Is there a natural remedy I can use to relieve his itchness?

HI Jeanine

Here is a herb remedy that will work. For long term health learn about colon and liver cleansing to clear out the toxins in the blood.

1. Take 1-3 droppersful of Echinacea Plus Tincture (at herbdoc.com or another qualified site) to strengthen the immune system.

2. Rub Garlic oil ALL over the affected area (Garlic will kill anything if you use enough of it)

3. Give 1-3 glasses of Activated Charcoal Slurry per day (to absorb the toxins out of the blood)

4. Mix equal parts of Aloe Vera Gel, Slippery Elm Powder and Activated Charcoal Powder together (absorbs the toxins externally)

5. Apply a thin layer of this mixture over the AFFECTED area(s).

6. Continue this treatment, until the desired Results are achieved.

This is healing at it’s highest point.

Cause
Eczema is often called Dermatitis, and may be a symptom of an omega-3 fatty acid deficiency. Eczema can be due to allergies, allergies secondary to digestive disorders such as hydrochloric acid deficiency, rashes secondary to immune diseases, genetic metabolic disorders, and/or nutritional deficiencies, especially of niacin (vitamin B3) and B6, as well as other B vitamins.

To minimize your risk of developing eczema, avoid irritating substances, wear natural nonirritating materials, use soothing ointments, and check to see if dietary, nutritional, and/or and allergy-causing factors need to be considered.

Acne Laser Skin Treatment

Acne Laser Skin Treatment
I can’t get laser surgery for my acne and scars because my skin is too dark?

Went to the dematologist. Asked the cosmologist about the laser treatment for my acne and hyperpigmentation. She said that it is not recommended for my skin type (I’m African-American). Have you ever heard of such a thing?
I wasn’t hinting at racism. My dermatologist suggested that laser treatment could be an option for me, so when the cosmologist didn’t recommend it, I just found it odd, that’s all.
