acne scaring problem?

Question

Ok, so i've read a couple of posts about this topic, and most of your replys are that "bio oil" is the best stuff you can use. My problem is i cannot use it because i have very very oily skin and have been told to keep oil away from my face as much as possible to prevent from getting any more acne than i already have. Atm i am taking these acne pills which, since i've been taking for such a short period of time, i do not know whether they are working. I'd rather kill 2 birds with one stone. know waht i mean?

My Question is, are there any sorts of treatments(not including laser and oily products)that remove scaring? like pills, or special face resurfacing scrubs? if any of you know a place in sydney australia where they are able to remove scars effectivly, could you please tell me, thnks

Answer 2

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

Answer 3

dont use bio oil. it WILL make your skin much more oily.
in fact, you should never use any kind of oil on your face. it can cause really bad breakouts.

i was reading a good magazine by "Glamour" which im sure you've heard of. They mentioned a product called "Curad Scar Therapy"
its suppose to fade away your acne scars in 8 weeks. you're suppose to wear it for 12 hours a day too.
i read some great reviews on the product too, many peopel said its a wonderful product to use for bad acne scarring and i think you should use it.

its a clear pad and looks like this:

you can get it at ANY drugstores avaliable, like Wal-greens or CVS.
its about 15-18 dollars.

also...dont POP those zits and pimples!

You can try Dermabrasion, this method is done to remove the top and superficial layer of the skin. The procedure is made by electrical machine that can abrade the skin. The Dermabrasion technique is used to minimize the scars which are small in size, minor skin surface irregularities, acne scars and surgical scars.

Answer 5

this is tough because acne scaring is usually deep, so even if you do find a resurfacing scrub that works, its only going to be minor and the scars will remain.

i had a friend who had laser, it can be a bit pricey but she loved the results and her skin looks so much better.

Answer 6

It sounds like to me you have spots from acne, if so, use either Queen Helene or Palmers coco butter nd put it on your face daily and nightly, and the scars should start to blend with your skin in about 2 weeks

Answer 7

I feel your pain. To get rid of the scars use rescue oil AKA Bio oil (brand name). The spots is a hard one depending on what type of skin you have. If your skin is oily and greasy, soap and warm water will dry up your skin and help prevent spots. If your skin is too dry, try using moisturiser. Make up will only make your skin worst so make sure you wash your face with warm water daily.

Answer 8

if you can afford it go to a professional dermatoligist. it is there job so they will know how to help you. if not then get a product that neutralizes the oil. also since acne is a bacterial infection try using NEOSPORIN. it kills bacteria and prevents scaring. thats what i used and it works great.

Answer 9

Vitamine E helps.

buy the gel caplets
Put the liquid on your skin before you go to bed.

Answer 10

Try Mederma.
