Depressed Skin!!!

Post by Mandy78 » Mon, 03 Jul 2006 7:17 pm

Hi there..

I've been suffering from uneven and deep scars ever since 16!Now I'm already 28 and even thogh acnes have stopped but my skin still holds alots of deep scars.I've tried AHA peels for almost 2years but after that I had "erruption" again and it ends up with more scarrings!I've tried the intense pulse light laser as well but my skin is still troubled with the problem..

Can anyone out there who can help me by giving some advice???I even thought of removing my whole skin with lasers(if there is)cos I wouldn't mind about any price but just to return to a perfect complexion me!!I'm actually very very sad on this fact cos I'm someone who actually look very pretty indeed(please believe me..I really swear!!) with a figure and height whom everyone was admiring of even among my galfriends..the only thing whoch is my complexion!!!

Anyone???Please help me.... :(
Cheers
Mandy :p

hey mandy cheer up.. dun be too sad... there's sure a method to make ur skin nice de


u can try chem peel at raffles hospital which can remove mild pitted holes or flatten red marks cos currently i'm doing chem peels there... u can try dr yeak.. she is very nice doc there


if u haf pimple outbreak maybe use differin / retin a to control if really can't then take medicine like nimegen ba...

if ur scars is serious, try minor laser or subcision method or aquamid filler wich can heal deep scars but they dun come cheap

mandy sorry to hear ur problem but sad to say there's no way to complete cure. There's only ways to improved it it wont erase the hole u have got. so maybe u can try those treatment that danny says. but i t wont complette cure to let u have nice flawless skin. i guess u just do mask to prevent getting worse...

Thank you so much for your advice..now I do not have outbreaks anymore ..I've tried the filler things but it didn't feel completely..anyway,that last for about two years.

I still think peeling has the best effect cos it actually "wear out"the skin.can I know wat peel you're doing right now?Is it called AHA?cos I'm thinking of doing peel again but do not know if right now has better products than that..
Cheers

I'm much better than Mark Lee though..it's more on both cheeks.it is now all smooth and even but just that i have a few deeper scars.looks more like bigger pores..it's just that I'm looking for ways to completely dimished the small little holes..as wat i've told danny i'm now looking for better chemical peel to have faster results..really thanks for your concern.maybe you can recommend a good doc to me??Dr. Yeak really good??how much she charged for the peel you do?and how many times you do in a month?Thanks...
Cheers
