Acne Scars!

 

 

I have really bad acne scars on my face from popping pimples. Can I get rid of them?
 
Now you know not to pop a zit! It almost always makes the imperfection worse. Say you have a school dance, and a big red honker appears on the tip of your nose. Don’t squeeze it to death. A dermatologist can inject a hydrocortisone-like cream to reduce redness and inflammation. Or she can open up the pimple. Neither procedure leaves scars. Keep that in mind next time you get the urge to squeeze.
 
Dr. Ronald Davis, clinical professor of dermatology at University of Texas Southwestern says many scars improve with time. “Some scars are more noticeable initially because they are red,” he says, “but they fade in time. They will improve as you get older.” In cases of severe acne scars, Dr. Davis recommends microdermabrasion, a procedure that removes the outer layer of dead skin cells to gradually fade the scars. Also, a laser treatment is now being developed to stimulate collagen that helps fill the scars in and make them less prominent.

Hey guys! The best way to get zits GONE is to use Clinque 3-step acne products. its the bomb xD. i take 7 different over-the-counter stuff for acne, 4 prescriptions, and 5 creams. for the over the counter, clinque is the best Laughing its cheap!! like for the whole kit its like 5-10 bucks. and it works better than some of my prescriptions

Hey girl! Stridex pads are just a acne medication for pimply skin. They help clear skin and might be useful for you to try with your skin type!

MOD MOD i always pop my zits! help i dont want to get scars and i need to stop before i do. how do i tell myself no! thx

 

Hey girl!  You def want to try and break this habit.  Try getting mirror markers or even a brightly colored sign to put on your mirror that tells you to stop.  Everytime you go to pop, look up, tell yourself to stop, and look up at that sign.  But the best thing to do is try to find some type of cream that gets rid of the pimples so you don't feel like you have to pop them.  Try diff brands, creams, and face washes to see what works best for your skin.  Best, Kristen

I use Cetaphil every morning and night and it works great! It's also cheap and you can get it anywhere. Different face washes work for different people so if 1 doesn't work just keep trying different ones until you find the right one! Check out my profile and leave a comment! Laughing
