Are there any side effects or warnings I should know about before I commit myself to trying Zenmed?Does Zenmed really work on acne and scarring?
My dermatologist actually prescribed this to me and was nominated one of the top 100 in her field. She is Dr. Karen Mackler from Soundshore Medical Center in New Rochelle, New York. She is shown to be in the Castle Connolly Top Doctors: New York Metro Area 11th ed.
see a dermatologist. proactiv, Zenmed, as well as other store products actually gives different reactions so don't risk it. if it doesn't work for you, you may risk getting MORE SEVERE acne and HOLES on your face. Many scars actually result from store products. many products will burn you if used improperly, including Zenmed. i almost ruined my face. I know that it is hard to go to your parents and say you want to see a dermatologist buts its the only way. and when i went to the dermatologist i found out i wasted my money on products for nothing. Insurance enables you to see the dermatologist and get prescription products for free. If you can't find a dermatologist at the moment, ask your doctor to prescribe minocyline pills to attack acne internally taken once at night and once in the morning, and Benzaclin 4% wash and Benzaclin 4%gel to attack it externally.The 4% is for sensitive skin, but you can get an 8% for greater strength is your skin isn't sensitive. The wash should be used twice a day. Apply a quarter size and lather onto wet face. Leave on for 30-40 seconds, and no more to avoid burning. Then apply the gel. Not too much. On the face you should apply a small drop to the fore head and using both index fingers move horizontally outwards. It doesn't need to be directly on the pimple for it to work. Then apply another drop on each of you cheeks and move outward horizontally towards your ears and before you leave your face outline drop downwards. then apply another at the chin and move outwards with the index fingers horizontally. If you have scars, get Retin-A prescribed to heal those nasty scars from the acne. Act fast and see the dermatologist since you may have severe acne. I had cystic acne that would grow and explode then causing scars. My mom finally brought me at the right time to the dermatologist.
Its normal for your skin to dry out since that is the key to controlling acne. You can even ask your dermatologist and he/she will tell you that the products should be aiming to dry your skin out. But if it is really strong, you may have the 8% Benzaclin medication. 4% is best for more sensitive skin.
The darker skin are all SCARS. THE BEST WAY TO REMOVE IT IS BY BEING PRESCRIBED Retin-A AS MENTIONED. It is applied like the benzaclin and should be used in the morning. Don't put too much or you will burn.

I have rubbed over my acne and scars are formed what should i do to get rid of them....?
its a big scar on my forehead any suggestions plzzz....?
i am using aloe vera and honey on my skin...but its not getting off.......its been more than a month...need help!!!I have rubbed over my acne and scars are formed what should i do to get rid of them....?
As you probably know, acne develops from oils that well up in your pores. It is likely that the acne that appears on your forehead is from the natural oils in your hair. First of all, be sure to wash your face with gentle soap 2 or 3 times a day and, most importantly, arrange your hair so that it isn't touching your face. Aloe vera is a great natural healing agent, but I've never heard of using honey to control acne. Logically, it would seem that honey would clog pores and prevent air from getting to the skin. You might want to ask a dermatologist if using honey is wise. Best of luck to you!I have rubbed over my acne and scars are formed what should i do to get rid of them....?
Concentrated Vitamin E is what you should be using. Also try using coconut butter. You can buy all these from your local pharmacy.
since it has been a month ago. the best thing that you can do now is to never touch on any of your acne or future acnes. if you touch em. i'll be inflamed. scars could form.
you could also go to a dermatologist. there are micro peeling procedures now which could hasten up the peeling process of the skin. makes your scars go away
there are also peeling liquids that can be bought otc, but since your a lady, i do not advise them. its still best to go to a dermatologist
Have you tried bio oil? It's supposed to help reduce the appearance of scars
See a Dermatologist. They can do dermabrasion and laser work to make the skin like a baby's bottom.
See a skin specialist.. might need dermabrasion or laser treatment. Unlikely the treatment you are using will clear the scar tissue. .. Some scars can be permanent.
there is surgery that you can get and it gets rid of the scars.
you can try tea tree oil and bio oil and Frankincense Oil.
i hope that helps.
Look for a scar-heal cream at the pharmacy and if there aren't any, I guess the best alternatives are a good facial scrub cream (you know, those with ';microbeads'; or apricot shell fragments) or ';skin renewal'; facial peel.
consult beauty clinics...sometimes they have things like microdermoabrasions that might help
try vitamin B, they come in capsules. Just use a needle to make a hole and squeeze it out - apply it to the spot/ area. I used it on scars on my knees and elbows it works!
try very dilute lemon juice also use witch hazel all over to prevent more spots occurring.
nothing you can do,scars may take a year or more to go away.You could put a paper bag over your head
Unfortunately there is not a lot you can do for scars. There are a few good topical treatments on the market. Acne can be embarrassing at the best of times. I would try going into a site called Epinions.com and find out what users are saying about various products. Good hygene which involves regular bathing helps a lot. Good internal health is a major contributor to healthy skin. Try and stay away from the junk foods. I鈥檝e also had good luck with a product called Acnezine. Try this source I found for more help: Good Luck
Errrrrrrrr its a scar. It is there for life.

How do you get rid of acne scarring on your face?
First of all, you shouldn't pop your pimples because that can cause scarring. My doctor told me to wet a towel with HOT/WARM water and just damp my face with it. Also, go to a dermatologist if it doesn't work out. Good Luck!How do you get rid of acne scarring on your face?
Acnezine spot removing pills are Rated the #1 acne treatment product with guaranteed results that work for teenagers and adults suffering from facial and body acne. The acne pills eliminate pimples, spots, redness, puss, whiteheads and blackheads caused by acne. http://Acnezine-Acne-Treatment.ze.cxHow do you get rid of acne scarring on your face?
You have to let them fade, but where I have scars I just put foundation on em and it looks fine!
Rose hips are the seed pod left after the rose petals fall off. You have probably heard of rose hip tea, recommended because it is so rich in Vitamin C. The oil from rose hips, often called rosa mosqueta, is very nutritious and consists of 80 percent essential fatty acids. It was a mainstay of the Incas, for example, for its nutritional qualities.
Rose hip oil is also renowned for its benefits for the skin. In fact, it has multiple benefits. It is particularly famous for any scars, including acne scars. Read about them here:

dermabration, it works. some scars are different than others, deeper, and may require more than one treatment, it costs some $ but it is really worth it, it worked for me, i have never regretted it. when i looked in the mirror all i saw was acne scars....good luck.
you can't get rid of scars. you could put certain kinds of creams on them like cocoa butter to make them fade but they won't ever really go away.
There is allot of ways to fade them! AcneFree has a acne scare line made of 2 or 3 steps I was told works! Laser treatment easy cost around $300-$800 and it gone forever! Bio Oil works great to fade them you can pick it up at Walgreens cheap!
look up lasering...

Is it fine for me to use non-comedogenic or oil-free foundation to cover up my acne scars?
I'm 17, male and passionately regret picking and messing up my skin in previous years. I used to have really inflammed acne until my doctor prescribed Tetralysal tablets and Freederm. Now, my skin looks better, but I was just wondering, and I'd appreciate your honest opinion, if wearing non-comedogenic or oil-free foundation has the potential to help me? Have you, or do you know of anyone, who has had success with wearing make-up in order to hide their acne scars and/or other skin blemishes.
Don't answer this question if you're just going to give an unhelpful and/or offensive answer.
Thanks in advance.Is it fine for me to use non-comedogenic or oil-free foundation to cover up my acne scars?
Well I'm sure you'll be able to cover your scars with the right products and some practice. I've never known of any of my guy friends using makeup other than in theatre productions. The key would be finding products that match your natural skin color and blending really well in order to make sure that it's not apparent that you're using makeup. Choosing makeup that is non-comedogenic or oil-free would be the best because those will keep you from breaking out again. BUT know that by wearing makeup in general you run the risk of breaking out a bit again. Keep your pores clean and remove the makeup thoroughly but gently when you're done with it.
Best of luck!!

I'm 50 yrs old. How 2 make face w extremely large pores, black acne scars, extremely dry but oily look......?
I want healthy looking skin that does not break out. I don't have any wrinkles yet, but I started breaking out w cystic and sand like acne late in life. the more i break out, the more holes are created in my skin. i break out around the chin strap area of the face. i am told it could be due to digestive problems if i change my diet it is less but not perfect. so far the doctors don't know anything. the dermatologists only treat the surface w harsh results but they don't know the root of the problem. the homeopathic says my entire digestive system is out of whack i must take enzymes for the rest of the life but he does not know about the skin. so i am guesing that i should change the diet permantly, take enzymes after each meal, excercise alot, but about the rest?
any suggestions on what doctors, best skin products, diets, any secrets, etc that u use or recommend?I'm 50 yrs old. How 2 make face w extremely large pores, black acne scars, extremely dry but oily look......?

Is vasoline helpful for acne and scars??
No. It is a waterproof barrier for your skin cells. It softens lips because it seals in the natural body moisture/ and oil and that is what your lips need when chapped. Hydro cortisone 10 is sold at the CVS or other pharmacies in the aisles. Read the labels carefully.
Scars are now treated with a product called ';scar gel'; again CVS type place. In the aisles. It is applied daily by rubbing it in. The scar will take some time to go away. Though large scars or fresh and still red need to be evaluated by a doctor before any steps are taken.
hope that helps.Is vasoline helpful for acne and scars??
I'm not sure, probably not.
I use vasoline petroleum jelly on my lips and my eyelashes sometimes.Is vasoline helpful for acne and scars??
NO.....use neutrogena clear pore formula...it takes away everything
