This was suggested with other topical and wash treatments to get rid of my acne caused by long term steroid usage (yay brain cancer). Any how insurance won’t cover the treatment as it’s technically cosmetic. They say it takes 2 to 3 treatments at 2 to 3 weeks apart for a cost of 0 each treatment. I’m wondering if anyone has any peronsal experience with this and if it’s really worth the cost.

I’m 16, have combination skin and have acne scars. They’re not like the ones you see on Lawrance Fishbourne that make your skin look like oatmeal, but they’re red and dark. I’m half Hispanic, but my skin is pretty light. So, my acne scars arr dark. I don’t want to have to go and see a dermatologist and let them make me take a bunch of harsh chemicals – I want something more natural.
What are some good home remedies that actually work?

I currently use Proactiv and it’s not treaty the under-skin pimples i have. It works wonders for the few white heads i get but i mainly get the under-skin pimples that hurt to touch. My skin is normal. It’s not oily or dry its just normal. Please not im 14 so nothing too expensive. If you have acne like mine what do you suggest i use?

is it really that dramatic? Can it really get rid of almost every single red mark that well? I have one red mark similar to that guy and would do anything to remove it, or at least make it tiny.
can the surgery be done to only remove one mark, or do you have to have tons?

I have had mild acne for a few years now, I am currently 17…almost 18, and in the past 6 months or so it has gotten very bad. I clean my face every morning and night with soap and have used products such as Proactive and Clearasil but nothing had gotten rid of it. Any suggestions on something that might help me out?
Also, can lack of sleep have any effect on acne because I only average about 6 hours per night.

Hi! Does anybody know anything about laser resurfacing for pitting acne scars? Has anybody had the surgery? How long does it take to heal? How much does it cost? Was it effective? Was it worth it? My acne scars really affect my relationships make me depressed. What are your thoughts?
Or has anyone had punch grafting or excision for their pitting acne scars?
OK. I’m not trying to get rid of acne. I’m trying to get rid of pitting acne scars, like indentations in my skin. They don’t go away from creams or washes!
