Hi I’m new

Wednesday, November 26th, 2003

the first question is how long have you had the
red marks around your chin? my derm told me that most
"marks" left over after acne a not scar, but they are
just temporary. the derm said that any mark that has
been on your skin for more than 6 months is a scar.
<br><br> if these marks have been on your skin for more
then 6 months you could look into micro-dermabration,
demabration, or laser skin resurfacing as some options.

that’s great. i’ve heard good things about minocycline, but i’ve never tried it.
my skin was doing great, then it wasn’t doing so good, and now it looks better.

Hello!<br>Things are going GREAT - my face is at
least 50% clearer thanks to the Minocycline. I still
take 2 50 mg pills a day (100mg in total). I used
Retin-a cream for 2 days but then i decided to switch
back to the Stievamycin (which my derm told me would
be more effective). I also use benzamycin in the
mornings. I plan on keeping with Minocycline for as long as
i have acne, its really been helping me!.<br>-The

Does anyone know of a skin cleanser or a soap that won’t dry out my skin? I can
barely wash my face once a day with dove soap, and it still dry’s it up so bad
that I can barely move my face.

ProActiv

cool, the pro-active infomercial is very
convincing! i nearly ordered it, but my skin got better, so i
didn’t order it. i use benziol peroxide now, (one of the
main products in pro-active), and love the results.
plus benziol peroxide 10% is cheap and you can buy it
at so many stores. <br><br>best of luck

I’m not sure if I had told you about the
homeopathic medicine for acne and how you have to take it for
it to work (Kinda difficult btw)…you can’t eat,
drink, or smoke anything for at least 15-30 minutes
before or after taking it…and you have to avoid mint
toothpaste(what other kind is there?lol) during that time too. I
found that the easiest way for me was to eat my last
bite of food around 11:30pm, and then brush my
teeth-then I chewed the first tablet around midnight, then
the next one about 15 minutes or more later, then the
next at the same amount of time-the bottle says take
four-so it means not eating, drinking, or smoking (if you
do) during that time,and for at least 30 minutes
afterwards-that can really be a pain, huh?! But the stuff works
great, I was just concerned when my sister, and another
