On Wednesday 8/24/16, I had my third laser hair removal treatment on my neck. The woman administering the laser hair removal decided to turn up the intensity this time so that it would do the trick. I didn't know this until after when I discovered what I consider to be 1st degree burns. I have been putting Neosporin on the burns. I am headed to China to teach English. Will it be safe to go to China with these burns. I am planning to leave next week. Should I expect discoloration?
Hi, in December I scratched the surface of my pimples that caused a wound. It lasted for about two weeks and it was able to heal. It was still there so I used Mederma Advanced Scar Healing gel (not as effective). It's been about three months since I've had this scar and I think it's called a pitted scar. It's really red and I'm considering if I should get any treatment? I often use Neosporin for it to heal and Vaseline for a smooth surface so I can apply foundation and concealer to cover it up.
I vertically scraped my face in the forehead and now its turning dry and white And shiny around it. Scab is not developing. Will it scar and possibly turn into keloid? I have few keloid in my body from major injuries and accidents but not in face. I used neosporin the first 1-2 days and now its day 5 and used vaseline to cover it up. Should i worry about scarring or it is fine and will heal perfectly in time?
I have two scars the darker one is from tweezers but the lighter new one was just my fingernail. I am more worried about tending to the newer one and it is above the darker scar in the picture. It was about a month ago when I did it and I used Neosporin every night and am now using mederma. Do you think it will fade/any other ideas? Thank you
I was never told not to wax while taking accutane. As a matter of fact, I haven't been told really anything about what not to do or what to expect. Its all been trial and error. So I had my eyebrows waxed and immediately knew something was wrong because of how badly it hurt. Noticed a clear layer of skin is gone off my eyelids on both eyes. I want to avoid scarring. I've used aloe and neosporin so far. What else can I do to prevent scarring, scabbing and/or pigmentation?
