Tweet This rarely happens, in fact, I hardly ever really get zits like this any more. I have to be under a lot of stress to get them any more because of my skin care regiment, my diet, and my supplements that I take, as well as, I’m sure, the fact that I am in my mid thirties now and although adult acne can certainly persist for a while I was definitely one of those people who got it the worst when I was a teen and in my early twenties. Well, I must have had a stressful week,...

Review : Invicible Scars Treatment for Scarring
Tweet There is a newer product now for scarring that you may want to look into. It’s used a lot for post cosmetic surgery scarring, C sections and other types of trauma-type scars, but it may also help you if you have acne scarring that you want to help reduce the appearance of. I got a bottle of this product in the mail in exchange for an honest review of the product. I honestly didn’t think it would work as well as it did, and was prepared to give it a so-so review if I ended up not liking...
Press Release on New Laser Skin Treatment
Tweet I got this press release info in my email, so I thought I would share it with all my readers. It’s about a new aesthetic laser treatment for scarring, and you guessed it – acne scarring, so I thought it perfect for you to peruse. Here’s the letter along with the actual press release and product info : My name is Christina with The Jenn Lee Group. I am writing to you regarding a topic of interest that I would like you to consider for Acne Magazine online. Dr. Frankel of Rejuvaderm MediSpa in Cranston, Rhode Island...
Getting a Sample of InviCible Scars Treatment to Try Out
Tweet I am soon going to be getting a sample of the new scarring treatment product that was created in part by a plastic reconstructive surgeon called InviCible Scar to try out. I was told by a rep for the company, who offered to send me a free sample in exchange for an honest review of their product, that the product works well on scars that are not as old, but it can still also lighten older scars that may be pigmented deeper than the rest of your skin. I thought it might be useful for this blog, as...
Ouch! My Red and Scaly Mistake
Tweet Well, I’ve really screwed up my skin in one spot on my chin, and just weeks before I’m getting married, no less! Of course, this is just my luck, but I’m hoping that it’s going to be fixed by then by applying a host of intensive moisturizers and natural healers for the next several days. Here’s what I did, the genius that I am. I had a pretty bad acne lesion about 3 weeks ago. It popped up thanks to stress about the wedding and a host of other issues that were causing me stress that I couldn’t...
Laser Resurfacing Side Effect : Acne?
Tweet Laser resurfacing has become a more popular procedure as the quest to look younger and have more perfect looking skin becomes more of the society standard. However, while laser resurfacing can produce some pretty astounding results as far as totally revamping how the skin looks in terms of texture, appearance, and collagen production, it also has some side effects that can range from bothersome to downright serious. The good news though is that most patients are eaisly treated for any side effects of the procedure, and the ones that have more serious side effects are few and far...
Could New Drug for Scarring Help Acne Scars?
Tweet There is a new drug that may be very useful in eliminating scarring that has occurred from surgery or from some other trauma to the body where a significant scar has been left. The name of the drug is Avotermin and it is used by injecting it under the skin at the site of the scar. It can work when it is injected before surgery subdermally (under the skin), or it can also work on existing scars, although there is no news on whether it could be used cosmetically for patients with acne scars to help them fade...
After Using Acid Peel, Be Sure to Moisturize
Tweet I just got done using one of my favorite fruit acid based skin peels, and when I rinsed my skin off under warm (never hot!) water, I noticed that my skin squeaked when I was rinsing it. That may sound good, but it’s not, because when your skin is “squeaky” clean, it means that you’ve probably stripped it of two much moisture, and some of it’s protective barrier has been swept away. That’s all fine and good, and that’s actually the purpose of an acid peel, especially one that is strong like the one I just used. However,...
Retinol Based Breakout Subsided
Tweet I wrote about a week or so ago about how I had purchased a retinol based product called RoC deep wrinkle night time treatment cream, which has gotten high marks for helping to “iron out” heavy deep wrinkles, especially where I’m concerned, which is crow’s feet coming off he sides of the eyes. It also may help with a little of the bumpiness that I notice from time to time on my chin I’m hoping, but there are also good acne scarring products that help to even out this unfortunate side effect of suffering from acne for years...
Lasers for Age Spots, Acne Scars
Tweet My sister made me happy recently when she said she may find a job soon at a place where she can actually also enjoy the services instead of just work there, somewhere like a laser center. I asked if she thought maybe she could get me a reduced price on services and she thought maybe, so I was already starting to fanatasize about getting these pesky age spots on the side of my face lasered right off, because apparently laser therapy can help immensely with age spots. Also though, it may be able to help greatly diminish acne...
