Horrible Hyperpigmentation After 16 Months - Glen Burnie, MD

I have no idea what ur condition is like, but I do NOT recommend fraxel.

We are angry because we feel that we have been wronged by our surgeons.

I don't use creams except for an SPF that I use every day. I also don't use a whitening make-up or any type of cover-up at all. This is my face and if you don't like it, don't look. Does that sound like self-pity to you?

As far as 'god' is concerned. I grew up in a very religious household. I attended church and bible study classes regularly. However, this is NOT the venue for discussing religion.

I get on this site to use it as a venue for venting my frustrations to people who can understand them. I also get on here seeking advice from those who have been or are in my situation and from medical professionals. I don't wallow in self-pity. If you knew me or even met me, you would know that. I don't discuss this with my friends and family because they would not understand or know what to say that hasn't already been said.

D.NY,
I seriously believe that lack of love for a god has anything to do with ANY problems that anyone is having. You yourself have skin problems and seem to have a love for god, so that disproves your theory right there. Now, that being said, I would greatly appreciate it if you would stop making inane comments on MY post.

Sincerely and Thank you,

Izzy

Thanks Evelyn, I will have to check these out.

Alias, could not have said it better myself. Evelyn5, I am past the stage of needing to cool my face. It's been 2 1/2 years at this point. The redness and heat have went away and now I am just left with hyperpigmentation. I am told by a few dermotologists and an EMT/Firefighter that my epidermal layer has been damaged. I just need to wait for it to come to the top (as we shed top layers the epidermal layer we currently have eventually becomes the top layer) and it will go away. However, they say this could take years. Whether that is 2 or 20 years they could not tell me.
