"Oh boy! Another welt!" I moaned as I looked at my acne torn face. I had
cystic acne, which created huge painful welts under my skin, until they would
finally erupt into an infected mess. To say it made me obsessed with skin care, does
not do the situation justice.
The Cost Of No Solution
At one point I looked in my closet and estimated I had spent in one year $1,000 on
products for acne. I only earned $10,400 a year back then!
Clinique Clarifying Lotion
One of my skin conquering expeditions returned to me a great lead. I met a
lovely lady behind the Clinique counter with skin that glowed. After further
investigation I greedily gathered her success had come from Clinique's Clarifying Lotion. This product had removed her deep acne
scars which had plagued her only a year earlier.
Clinique's products are designed around a simple concept of exfoliation. Pimple
scarring is best removed through gentle chemical dermabrasion. There are many ways
to do this.
Natural Remedies
Some people like the idea of using
a natural method because they believe there will be less side effects. This is
true, but at times the method might be less effective! One method you can try is
to mix lemon juice (or tomato juice) with oatmeal finely ground in the blender.
This used over a period of time could be helpful.
Chemical Peel - Professional Strength
After doing a little research I have found it is now quite possible to buy a
professional grade chemical peel designed specifically for pimple scar removal.
The one I found is HQ+ Gel Peel. From the very positive reviews
of this product, I would say it works quite well, however, it is very powerful
and must be used with extreme care.
ZenMed
If you have heard about ZenMed you might want to read user reviews on the
subject. Uniformly the reviews were inconsistent.
Laser Dermabrasion
Your last resource is to go to a
Dermatologist. A professional chemical peel or laser dermabrasion most likely
will be prescribed. Laser treatment is expensive and could result in additional
problems from undesirable side effects.
After doing extensive research on this subject I concluded HQ+ Gel
Peel seems to offer the most cost
effective and powerful solution. Just be careful that you follow directions as
the product is very potent.
