Acne and acne scar cream in singapore

[earthfriendly]

The best routine that has helped keep the acne at bay for me:

- weekly 10 min facial steam + exfoliation using similar product like this one https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Aqua-Gel ... +exfoliate

- daily nightly * oil cleansing using http://www.shuuemura-usa.com/product/cl ... lt,pd.html + argan oil (as a moisturize, comedogenic rating = 0)

- daily morning cleanse with water + argan oil for moisturizing

* Shu Uemura's oil cleanser is the only cleanser that has worked for me. It delivers what it promises and goes deep down in cleansing the pores. I had wasted too much time and money on the rest, in the past.

because earthfriendly replied, i'll add on to scar reduction...

i've got heaps of scars from various motorcycles and car crashes and am prone to keloids.

a friend (dermatologist) gave me a tube of tretinoin cream last year (free, near expiration date), which i have been regularly applying on one particularly (big) scarred patch.

it's been about 9 months since i started. it's probably improved in color, size and comfort by at least 75%. the reason i know is because i only applied it to 2/3 of the scar's surface area so i can gauge how well it works.

after 6 months, i've started rubbing it into the other 1/3 and various other scars as well.

it's not available OTC but you can ask your doctor if it's suitable for you.

Would you consider going for laser treatment? I have been going for 3 times (Q-switch laser) for my ongoing acne + acne scar problem. I have seen a huge difference on my face. I was resisting doing laser at first and opted for regular chemical peel facial. Though chemical peel facial does help in enlightening my overall complexion, but I did not get any significant improvement on my acne scar (have been going for 8 months at the moment, still doing it bc I still have 10 more times until my package finishes). There is no downtime at all doing Q-switch facial, and just make sure it is the dermatologist/doctor doing it for you, not a beautician.

laser some times result in hyper pigmentation.

happened to my wife (east asian) and she got really annoyed.
