I did read somewhere that vitamin E directly on the scar will make them fade on long run, can someone confirm ?
Evan Clark
why not google it?
2nd result for "vitamin e scar" yielded:
>CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that there is no benefit to the cosmetic outcome of scars by applying vitamin E after skin surgery and that the application of topical vitamin E may actually be detrimental to the cosmetic appearance of a scar. In 90% of the cases in this study, topical vitamin E either had no effect on, or actually worsened, the cosmetic appearance of scars. Of the patients studied, 33% developed a contact dermatitis to the vitamin E. Therefore we conclude that use of topical vitamin E on surgical wounds should be discouraged.
Is skin bleaching something that can be properly achieved Veeky Forums? Information is all over the internet with some people saying that it's achievable and possible to do well and some saying you'll get skin cancer and die. Give it to me straight Veeky Forums. I just want to be lighter without buying some cheap third world country garbage that will permanently screw me over. Recommend me something if you can. BTW I'm not black but I would like to be lighter

I'd say almost three weeks now. Prior to that I was just exfoliating excessively because I was ignorant.
I had mild acne when I was younger because of a shit diet but after starting this up I guess I can say my skin feels nicer. I didn't really take note of my condition before starting.
Ryder Richardson
Since there is ALWAYS questions in this thread about problems with acne and breakouts, I'll let you in on the perfect solution. It's from a south korean skin care co. (Elizavecca) > Milky Piggy Sea Salt Cream Works miracles.
Ethan Flores
Mederma works pretty well.
After you put it on it hardens into a crust though and can flake off so instead of putting it on in the day its good to put some on your scar before you go to bed and then rub some moisturizer over it do it dosn't flake off.

5-10% benzoyl peroxide and sleeping with a t-shirt that you can stand getting bleached
otherwise just get a small dose of 'tane
Hudson Reyes

David Sanchez

How can I even get rid of zits and pimples on my back? I can't stand them, please help. I've fixed my diet, eating less, drinking more water. I have only 1(one) zit on my face now but my back hasn't changed. What do?
Eli Campbell
use kelo-cote. my doc recommended it, it really works to minimize scarring. kind of expensive though– if you're broke, vitamin e oil does work to heal scars, just less efficiently
Hunter Roberts
going to the derm tomorrow to pretty much start the process of accutane. thank Had acne for the last few years its killed my confidence and just been there despite trying multiple topical and oral treatments. Having pale completion makes it super visible and red too. feelsgoodman to finally accept this is what I have to do and just get this shit gone before I scar my face even more
Henry Hernandez
how do I deal with clogged pores on forehead? I used to exfoliate with a physical exfoliator but i think it made me breakout so I stopped.
Michael Ross
Someone pls. Advice on what I'm missing if anything and what I may be doing wrong? Yeah. Have experience with bentonite clay. Quick on and off with apple cider vinegar but the high end stuff seems unnecessary. Have you tried a chemical exfoliant?
Sebastian Butler
should I spot treat before or after my moisturizer
Adrian Diaz
I get tiny blackheads around the bottom corners of my mouth, and whiteheads and blackheads on my forehead crease. Any tips to deal with them?

Do ABA/BHA toners also act as exfoliants? Or do I need to use a separate exfoliatant along with the toner?
Tyler Cruz
I have oily skin, and have to use oil absorbing sheets during the day.
I wash my face with Aveeno face wash, then use some Aveeno moisturizer but no matter what, 4-5hrs later (sooner if it's warmer out) my face has a bunch of oil coating it.
What do?
Ian Carter
Does anti-ageing stuff actually combat ageing or just tighten up the skin?
Can I use it when young to look better when old?
Andrew Young
No, and in fact, most of them are the same shit and actually contain things that age the skin faster. Same thing with chapstick (makes lips cracked, making you buy more).
There is this though, so keep your fingers crossed for the future:

a source that isn't HuffPo or whatever would be great

could be the dimethicone in the moisturizer that is adding this oily layer to your skin
tried not using it?
Robert Martinez
whats a good, not super expensive chemical exfoliator?

Help?
Joshua Robinson

Benjamin Cruz
I could deal with my acne for the most part,
but the bit im most self conscious about is how my nose + skin around that area is all red. how do i make it "normal" ?
Dylan Phillips
they're mild chemical exfoliants because they contain AHA and BHA. they both make skin shed faster. there are physical exfoliants that do it faster, do. higher concentrations of AHA will literally peel skin of you though
you only need more exfoliation if you have a lot of dead skin cells
Nolan Harris
put your skincare on in order of product thickness: >toner >serum/spot treatments/etc >moisturizer >eye cream >sunscreen always last
Blake Martinez

Parker Davis

Jose Wright
What do you guys do for teeth whitening?
Looking to get them a bit less yellow without going to a dentist
Currently brushing and mouthwash 2x day, flossing before bed
Not really skin but still face-related and figured you guys would know more about it than random schmucks in the fuccboi general
Jonathan Gray
Does anyone know what this is and what to do about it? I have this for like ten years now and I tried everything, washing twice a day, not washing, using various cleaning gels, not using any, using lotion, washing my bed sheets every day etc, the list goes on.
Basically when I don't use any products it gets dry as fuck, flaky and red after showering, when I use cream the pimples start to spread immediately, even if it just something water based.
Right after showering it looks the worst.
David Price
already tried that, my skin will break out, be greasy and just gross
Aiden Walker

Gabriel Edwards
nah man I don't grow much hair there
Leo Ward
Stop using those oil sheets. They make your face over produce oil in the long run. If necessary just splash your face with cold water throughout the day to remove some oil
Jeremiah James
So I've recently finished a long round of antibiotics and other treatments prescribed to get rid of acne, and I'm happy to say it's worked. However, after many years of having it I'm stuck with a general redness on my face, and very light acne scarring that shows up when I'm in the right light.
The point of this is I've been considering getting microdermabrasion to fix this, but it's a lot of money, and I'm wondering anons thoughts on this. Anyone else had it in the past, or know anyone?
Jackson Hill
Bro, just get an exfoliating towel/glove and rub your face with it in the shower till your face starts to tingle.
Do this 2/3 days a week. Save your money.
Austin Anderson
Pls help. My current routine is cleanser, PC 2% BHA gel, moisturizer. Where should I fit a clay mask into this routine? I was thinking before moisturizer but is exfoliating+clay mask too harsh?
Carson Campbell
microdose accutane
Benjamin Johnson
You could always get them professionally whitened, which is like ~$500 I think. Or you can get whitening strips
Besides that, drink lots of water and eat lots of apples. Use a tongue cleaner after brushing and alcohol free fluoride rinse after you use mouthwash
Samuel Cox
my skin is developing this fucking weird texture and I don't know if it's the exfoliation or what. currently using am > cetaphil pm > cetaphil > stridex 2% plz halp

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone use baby oil after the shower?
Jace Ross
I have the same problem. Using a sunscreen/moisturizer in the morning and at night has helped a lot.
Liam Hernandez
not sure if this helps but i used to have frequent acne breakouts and combined with my oily skin + tendency to sweat my face was a real fucking mess
went on a hiking trip for 2-3 days out over 2 weeks, sweating a fuck ton and being in the sun a lot and my face just cleared up
been 3 months since and my face is still perfectly fine
