I had a Brazilian wax a year ago that turned into ingrown hairs I plucked them and dug around in my skin with tweezers that werent clean and it gave me folliculitis. I also got cysts that turned into what looked like boils. They were huge and painful. Left me with these dark red marks and scars I havent been sexually active in a year because of it. Please help what do I do?
Help! I developed an extremely uncomfortable and itchy rash last year, all over my body. After numerous trips to the emergency room, I was told it was many things,finally they decided it was folliculitis. I have spare body hair. Finally,a year later, the lesions have healed, but I'm left with hideous scars. I'm 29 years old, used to have beautiful skin, now I'm devastated and have no idea where to begin. I hide in long pants and sleeves no matter the temperature. I've lost all my confidence.
The scars on my legs came from a rash I had from getting my legs waxed and getting folliculitis at least that what the doctors said I've tried everything to diminish the appearance even by taking bleach baths which is what the dermatologist told me to do once a week to kill the bacteria and even hundreds of creams though it didn't help that I became so depressed,hopeless and eventually self destructive and started picking at them and made my legs worse.
that being said I do have hair still but would like to shave my head but it is rather unsightly and I am starting to go bald. Is plastic surgery an option to remove the damaged tissue?
After my 2nd laser hair removal treatment, I started having red bumps forming all over my legs. When I consulted the clinic, they told me it is Folliculitis and will disappear by itself in a few days. However, that didnt happen and now after 25 days, it has healed but the scars have remained. There was no issue after the first treatment so Im not sure why this happened. Is there any way to remove the scars?
