Recently I have had some bug bites issue and I dealt with it with some bug bite cream and also Off bug bite repellent spray. I fohnd both sides of my face getting dried and bumpy and rough to the touch when I touch it. They are not acne but feel like they had a bit of little skin hanging off it when I touch it.. Im not sure if they were caused by bug bites or allergic reactions to the cream or repellent I used. Please help if theres any treatment I can do to revitalize my face back to smooth?
I have a 7 year old scar caused by using a Tria fractional laser device a few too many times and caused a massive tethered rolling scar across my chin. 6 Fraxel re:store and 1 co2 fraxel treatments later, it is still there. Fillers last me about 1 month. Tried them all. I recently read about chemabrasion (dermabrasion + medium tca peel) and wondered if this could help me. Perhaps subcision as well? The texture is rougher than the surrounding skin, but it isnt noticeable when I smile.
Would a chemical peel, laser resurfacing, or something else help the appearance of my skin? I also have crepey under eye skin. I don't know why it is this rough looking. I cleanse, tone, exfoliate, moisturize, wear SPF. Any advice would be so helpful. I'm not sure where to begin, thank you!!
After about 6 months to maybe a year my skin always goes back to being rough and thick with dead skin and hyperpigmentated even after chemical peels such as vi peel, why ? is my skin heavily damaged from a life in the sun ? none of my family has this problem only me, however !!! i did use generic retinoid one year and its after this my skin is always sun damaged. did it ruin my skin ???
Got a Mandelic peel a week and a bit ago , I started peeling about 2 days after the peel for couple days, the peeling started to stop then this happened I did use a toner about 2nights before it appeared could that have caused it , is it burns or still part of the healing process?
The peel was 33% gly acid. I got it done on Friday as well as a lot of deep extractions. I didnt notice the bumps until saturday, because I noticed there was what looked like a raised scratch on my cheek but the skin wasnt broken. The bumps and scratch are still there three days later. the bumps dont itch, and you cant even see them without really looking. basically my skin feels very rough and is covered with tiny tiny bumps. This was my first peel :/
I have always had bumpy scaly skin on my chest ever since I remember. It doesnt hurt - its just my skin in that one area. I have been doing research as I absolutely hate my skin there. Im too embarrassed to wear lower cut shirts. Would chemical peel be a possible option as I know it can cure acne but I also saw it can cure rough skin as well. Please advise! Thank you
I had a Vitalize peel 5 days ago. My skin peeled well and I can see and feel smooth new skin all over the face. However, jaw area and some parts of upper lip feel rough, scabby , dry, tight. It seems like it is kinda peeling again... that area also stings a little when I apply aquaphor . Is this area still peeling? I am worried about PIH so wanted to start putting some hydrocortisone in this area as a prevention. Thoughts? Pics attached from today ( day 5 of peel )
