Using lasers to get rid of acne scars...?

Ok well, I'm 16 years old. My skin on my face looks great...EXCEPT on my chin. For some strange reason I got a WILD bout of acne on my chin...I went to a dermatologist, and even with medicated creams it took MONTHS to go away..months..now,I am left with small, red, flat scars all over my chin.





My parents are paying for me to get laser surgery to take the scars off my chin, has anyone done this? How effective is it/Using lasers to get rid of acne scars...?
only way it works.

What can i do to get rid of acne scars?

use sandpaperWhat can i do to get rid of acne scars?
see a dermatologist. they will most likely recommend microdermobrasion. it's skin resurfacing and is really good for acne scars. again i recommend bliss spa. you see results immediately. 212-219-8970 or blissworld.com.What can i do to get rid of acne scars?
Dermabrasion or micordermabrasion can help with acne scars by removing the top layer of skin.


The best way is by having a laser procedure done on your face. This can be costly but usually offers the best rewards...
There are many cheap and effective home remedies for acne. Tomato slices, turmeric, papaya juices and home made face packs will treat existing pimples and prevent further problems. More remedies at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/acne.html
Get a face buffing tool from a cosmetologist. Or, you can contact my grandmother at kooyer.walt-joyce@sbcglobal.net. My grandmother works for BeautiControl. It's kind of like Avon or Mary Kay, and they sell face buffers for like 10 bucks or something. They're really good for getting rid of scars.
Laser treatment is probably the best answer but will cost you. Places that refer to themself as laser and dermotology ......... can help you.
dermabrasion.





Vaseline. Nothing. Live with it. Sorry. I have them too.
I heard yogurt works. Leave it on for about 3 minutes and then dry off with warm water. But I'm not totally sure. You can try if you want.
every case of acne scar is unique ,and having a specific solution according to severity and type of scarring , either atrophic ( loss of skin) what we call acne excoree' or hypertrophic ( over growth of abnormal skin) , after this doctors can decide the best for you.. laser..dermabrasion..chemical pealing...


and finally if you asked me in the street,i ll prescribe you topical retinoid cream ( i would not mention a trade name ..you can choose the available in your country)..good luck..

Do OBAGI medical products help to get rid of acne scars? anyone here ever tried it?

i have been problems with acne scars for years and laser treatment seems expensive for me.Do OBAGI medical products help to get rid of acne scars? anyone here ever tried it?
Well, Obagi can help reduce the acne scars by stimulating your skin's own collagen and elastin production as well as removing the top layers of skin. The main thing obagi does it give you youthful, clear, glowing skin, it's definitely a great product line for beautiful skin. Good luck : )Do OBAGI medical products help to get rid of acne scars? anyone here ever tried it?
Obagi is not inexpensive, but less costly than laser and it does wonderful things for skin texture and for evening out skin color. I have mild but stubborn acne and it has not only helped that but also reduced pore size and smoothed out skin overall. So, yes, it would either diminish the severity of the scarring or eliminate it. Obagi has several different strengths and products, though, so first time around you may want to go to a dermatologist - then order on line.

Dose MaMa Lotion really work to get rid of acne scars?

If you鈥檙e looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne鈥?prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.


For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it鈥檚 advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.





Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.


Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

Should i get rid of my acne first, then my acne scars?

Get rid of your acnes then your scars, thats how its work. Try going for specialized facial treatment and you can see visible changes within a few months.


Try browsing through 88db site for a list of centres which provides acne treatments.That might be of some help:)Should i get rid of my acne first, then my acne scars?
Yes,but there are productss that work with both ...if you can afford you can get acne scar lazor treatments,or simply a home Derma brasion.Should i get rid of my acne first, then my acne scars?
Yes I use Proactiv and works great try it!

I have a lot of brown spots, old acne scars and post-acne marks...?

So, which one's going to work, ambi fade cream or mederma?I have a lot of brown spots, old acne scars and post-acne marks...?
I had the same problem. What you need to do is have a daily facial routine. You need to cleanse, tone, moisturize, and protect. I found this to be great for the skin. So buy a microbeads acne cleanser Clean and Clear I use, Olay toner its great, and I have the Ambi acne moisturizer and SPF 30 to protect and helps with the discolorations also. Its great to bring even toned skin.





Also you can wear makeup over it. Be careful with those fade creams they will leave blotches in your face I have a lot of brown spots, old acne scars and post-acne marks...?
Rodan and fields reverse regimen. it lightens and fades sun damage, brown spots and has been known to reduce acne scarring. It comes with a 60 day supply and has dermatologist medicines in it. It also has a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied. for more info or to order go to www.rodanandfields.com/jallan
Best thing to do would be to ask a pharmacist. They know the ingredients in most over the counter creams and face ointments. They could tell you what will work compared to prescription medication.
i dont know about those two but i had the same problem and i used the body shop's tea tree blemish fade lotion and my skin has shown a lot of improvement...maybe u can try it too


i hope that helped :)

    Acne scars - how to remove them?

    I had a lot of acne awhile ago, and still do now, but not as much. However, I have many dark acne scars all over my face and I really would like to remove them.


    I will look into anything, doesn't have to be natural or whatnot. No laser surgery though. Thanks!Acne scars - how to remove them?
    a natural tonic is honey and nutmeg scar remover wash. This treatment is meant to help heal the scars caused by skin eruptions, skin accidents, and acne.





    To make honey and nutmeg scare remover, combine 1 teaspoon of nutmeg with 1 teaspoon of honey, and mix them together. Apply them to your face and leave them for 20 minutes. Then, rinse it with cool water. Use it twice a week.





    this SHOULD help





    you can also buy any exfoliator with micro-beads - this will help remove the top layer of dead skin-


    you can also buy a peeling mask(you can get them at the local store), check the description, and get whichever one is suitable for removing the top layer, and exposing the underlying fresher skin





    within 2-3 months of doing this, all the scars should be gone-Acne scars - how to remove them?
    Go to Wal-Mart and buy AcneFree clear skin treatment. It doesn't clear you up in two days, but you will definitely see a notable difference.
    i've had alot of problems with my acne scarring up. it got so bad. so i tried mud masks. they actually work really well. not only do they help fight acne, but they help heal the scars. i had them for about a year before i started using the masks %26amp; now they're gone.
    my friend told me within a year it should go away, but im not so sure because i have almost the same problem as you. my scarring isnt as bad, but it is not fully gone.
