My skin is textured, bumpy, discoloured, lifeless, losing elasticity, dull and just full of pimples. Not the mention the one pit of pus permanently stuck on my face. I can't go out in public without feeling absolutely hideous. I was on accutane (80mg) and my cystic acne is now gone. This is what remains. I've tried the following; -Microneedling -Microdermabrasion (8 sessions) -Chemical peels -and over the counter exfoliation products I was looking into fraxel or pico way laser, Thoughts?
Hi everyone !!! Im desperately seeking help as my Dr is unsure of why has happened to my skin. I had fraxel done 6 months ago and for the past four months my skin has turned rough and bumpy. I stopped using all Products and only wash with cetaphil and apply DermAid hydrocortisone to my face 1%. Still no changes to the skin .I originally wanted to procedure to improve skin texture, help with congested skin and sebaceous Hyperplasia.
I'm getting a second fraxel treatment in a couple months but find the bumpy texture is back but was wondering what is the best makeup remover and sunscreen for super sensitive skin? I have a lot of allergies, I use bare minerals powder, only physical spf...I find it hard to remove though and garnier micellar is not helping my texture possibly bad for me? and cerave is not enough to remove. I use retin a at night. I'm allergic to lanolin and formaldehyde and have very sensitive skin.
I've got some pigmented and slightly bumpy skin texture on my upper chest. My General Practitioner have prescribed anti-fungal creams and steroids to calm it down but after 5 months, it's still the same. Can lasers be used to treat the texture?
I had a second round of Fraxel for my acne scars and after 9 days my cheeks have a rough, bumpy very unsightly texture to them. I hadn't had this problem the first time I had Fraxel. This rough texture is only on my cheeks (the doctor did turn the laser up for this area since scarring was the worst here). I have a few breakouts on my jawline (a side effect I also had after the first treatment) but the texture is more concerning to me. Is this normal? Will my skin ever return to normal?!
I had my first Fraxel 3 months ago. I had no coffee grounds after the initial treatment like I did with IPL (they said to expect it though) and saw no pigment correction. I've notice my pores seem a bit smaller and fine lines reduced BUT I have NEVER had bumpy/pimply skin, especially on my forehead! Now it is there all the time! They don't turn into pimples, but there are a bunch and they are all over my forehead and temples! I'm scared to get another!
