My nose has a bruise..a small scar.. and a blackhead, consecutively.. help me?

Ok, so these 3 things are not big, but just minor.





Together, they really stand out.





1) I had a small bruise bump forming, so I put ice on it, now there is no bump, but the spot is a dark color. How long will this heal, and what temperature water should i wash it with?





2) Beside the bruise is a small small small scar-like crater left from removing a blackhead 1 year ago. It's still pinkish and very small, but now it has made that area of the nose redish. What should i do?





3) On top of that scar/crater, is a blackhead. Oh god. Help me





How LONG will any of this take to heal, and what temperature water should i wash with daily?My nose has a bruise..a small scar.. and a blackhead, consecutively.. help me?

Do blackhead lancets (the remover tools w/ the loop) scar your face?

no they, don't.


they simply use pressure to pull it out of your skin.Do blackhead lancets (the remover tools w/ the loop) scar your face?
They are supposed to work so that your face does not get scarred. Picking at it with your fingers or nails is what causes the scarring and the pimple poppers are designed so that it is less damaging to your skin!

Whats the best home remedy for blackhead removal that doesn't scar?

i have a cousin who really needs a good answerWhats the best home remedy for blackhead removal that doesn't scar?
There's a face masque by St. Helen -- the Mint Julep one -- that works very well.





Also, remind her to drink lots of water, and make sure she's getting enough antioxidants -- Vitmains A,C, and E -- in her diet, and not just in her vitamin.





Tell her to make sure that all of her makeup says ';anti-comeodogenic'; Which means that it won't clog your pores.


Also, tell her that she should try to not wear makeup, make her pillowcase as clean as possible, moisturize, and not to use harsh chemicals. Tell her to consider just washing her face with olive oil soap - as it won't be too harsh on her face.





Use Steam, but carefully. Sometimes opening up your pores just spreads the bacteria around.Whats the best home remedy for blackhead removal that doesn't scar?
steam. like in a sauna or the like. it worked for me
A little hot water on a towel and gently scrub them away. Be careful, because if you scrub to hard it can leave a nasty bruse. But other then that it really works, my cousin does that.
Take a wash cloth and and hot water to your handling. Wash your face with Dove soap.Then wipe off with hot wash cloth and then pat your face with rag to open your pores.Take a bowl and put ice in and a little vodka and scoop it in your hand and pat all over your face.Then wash off with cold water pat face dry with clean towel.do this for at least three days.(Hot to open your pores to clean and clear and cold to close to leave clean and dry.
They make a blackhead remover that's a little metal tool with one hole in either end of it. You place it over the black head and press and the black head comes out. The idea is if you apply even pressure on all sides, the oil deposit comes out. Hope that helps.

  • What can I do to make sure that I don't scar my face when using a blackhead remover?

    There really is no safe of removing a blackhead by your self. There is always going to be a chance of a scar. It would be best to go to a salon and have a professional do it for you. If you want to save so money and do it by yourself, make sure your face is extremely hot and soft. Put on alot of lotion before hand and then Cover your face with a hot towel. This should help the skin, and make a smaller chance of a scar.What can I do to make sure that I don't scar my face when using a blackhead remover?

    If a blemish become infected and one keeps touching or pinching it with oily, greasy hands... it's definitely going to scar. To make the scar less noticeable (or even vanish) try the one of the following....





    (1) Vaseline on your scar before bed


    (2) Neosporin cream

    PLEASE HELP!!!! PREVENT BLACKHEAD SCARRING!!!!!?

    Last night I squeezed a blackhead. I did it lightly, so I could avoid scarring. But when I woke up this morning the skin where I had popped the blackhead was red and a bit puffy. I tried putting peroxide on it. But I don't really know what I'm supposed to do. I'm having my mom pick up some vitamin k cream (I heard that helps with scarring) and any other product that can help with my face. I REALLY don't want to have a scar!!! It won't be very small either if it does scar. I can't afford a dermatologist. So I would love some At-Home Remedies that are SAFE and EFFECTIVE. Please help! Please!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!!

    calm down. It will stop being red and puffy, it is just irritated from you squeezing it. Don't squeeze pimples/blackheads. Use acne meds and also one with salicylic acid in it to prevent blackheads from forming.
    Don't put peroxide on it for gods sake, leave it alone and it will go down, it is only puffy from being squeezed - you won't be able to tell after a day or two.

    Blackhead removal without causing pits or scarring?

    what can i do to get rid of blackheads without scarring my skin? i'm trying proactive, but it doesn't seem to be doing much.Blackhead removal without causing pits or scarring?
    Biore pore strips work wonderfully, and although they are shaped for noses, they can be used just about anywhere. In my experience, Biore's work the best, that is to say, they are the only ones that have worked for me. Generic ones or other brands have nothing on Biore.





    Clean %26amp; Clear also makes a wonderful product called ';Steam';. It uses steam from the shower to get into pores and clean them out, and exfoliates dead skin away. I use this several times a week and it always leaves my skin feeling amazing.





    Apparently, salicylic acid dissolves blackheads, although personally, I've never seen any dramatic difference. It's still worth a try, though.





    Another option is to go to a dermatologist and have them extract your blackheads for you. This is probably the most effective way, but can get very costly. Facials often include a similar extracting process, but again, can be costly.





    Definitely give the pore strips a shot, if you do it properly, you'll be amazed by the gunk it removes.





    Good luck!Blackhead removal without causing pits or scarring?
    to tell u the truth i use everything because i didnt want to scar my skin but after nothing was working i just started busting them myself and they came out i heard that if u dont get rid of blackheads they will dig in your skin i dont no if that true or not just squezz them out thats better all the other products

    for blackheads and pimples, just wash your face every morning and night. also for black heads, get a curret at your local drug store. currets are those metal things with holes on the end that you use to pop those suckers. they really work. try to avoid putting lotion on your face before you go to sleep as well. and avoid touching your face as much as possible.Best acne scar treatment for a person with sesitive skin and a few blackheads left?

  • Will blackheads leave a scar when they go?

    i have blackheads on my forehead and am using nivea blackead scrub for about 2 weeks but there are no signs of them reducing. They have been there for quite sometime and they look like tiny holes. Any advice pls????Will blackheads leave a scar when they go?
    try bior strips, you can get them at wal-mart. you can get the nose ones or the forehead and chin ones. they work great!!Will blackheads leave a scar when they go?
    Some of mine left holes. No matter what others say, the oldest blackheads I cleared myself left a hole on site
    That's tough to answer because everyone's skin does not react the same way to everything. The best way to determine whether or not you will get a scar from a blackhead is to look at your skin after you had a cut or scrape. Did that scar or did it go away? If your skin is prone to not scaring after cuts then there's a 99% percent chance that a blackhead will not scar your skin. A blackhead is a pore that is filled with dirt and oil from your skin. Before you go scrubbing your forehead to death, I would recommend speaking with a dermatologist. I do know that scrubbing your skin is a definite no-no and any dermatologist will tell you that. Try using Cetaphil cleanser on your skin and reducing the use of your nivea to about 2-3 times per week. Make sure your using a astringent on your face. Witch Hazel is really good for your skin and not harsh like the other astrigents like clean and clear and pond's. Also when you apply the astringent, use only 100% cotton balls. After use a non oil based face lotion. Oil of Olay have some good ones. Make sure it says 100% no oil. The cetaphil is quite pricey (about $12-$15) but if you want quality then it's worth it to shell out a few bucks. But please stop scrubbing your face!! It only makes your skin look dull after you use it for a while and can cause skin discoloration. I reccomend using the products I just mentioned and consulting your dermatologist.....








    In case your wondering how I know so much, I am a college student majoring in Nursing and have other medical professionals in my family. I also have great skin:)
    blacheads DO NOT leave scars. It is the white and red ones that do. Blackhead is dirt in a pore in the skin. These are the only ones that should be squeezed.
    i agree with the girl who said they left a hole on the side of my nose too! not a big one just a little whole i like the biore' strips 2 they work good after i use the foam facial cleanser (clean and clear its medicated!!) keeps the oil in your face under control
    if you dont pop them it wiill leave a hole in your face but im not sure about if it will leave a scare on your face.

    I just squeezed some blackheads, but i just heard they could scar now. How do i stop this?

    Also if i have a white head can i squeeze it? will in scar?I just squeezed some blackheads, but i just heard they could scar now. How do i stop this?
    I squeeze my black heads then regret it.. They only go red for about a minute then my skin goes back to normal...





    I use Amie exfoliating skin polish and that really helps clear my pores and prevents any new ones arriving to annoy me!!





    Hope I helped!! :)I just squeezed some blackheads, but i just heard they could scar now. How do i stop this?
    they will only scar if you squeeze too hard, if its a really big one and bleeds for example, so they wont definately scar.


    squeezing them is one of the only ways you can actually get rid of them, i use scrubs and none work.


    if you have alot, go to your doctor and they can prescribe you with a cream which overtime gets rid of them, then you wont need to squeeze them.
    it will only scar if you pop it to harsh, like to early or you had to squeeze it alot. first wait a few days and put like on the spot pimple treatments, stuff like that to dry it out, then put a warm wash cloth on it to open your pores then slowly pop it. hope i helped :]
    i do that all the time! and i have no scars i think it depends on the persons face. its not every one. it doenst happen to me. and im no differnt than any other human lol :]
    Put them back !

    Is there any way to get rid pimple and blackhead scars?

    I think the best thing for you to do would be a chemical peel. I know a few people who have gotten them done and they had remarkable results. It isn't pleasant a first, but the end results are really worth it. Find a good place to go to. Do not try the at home products because you can cause a lot more damage than you already have.





    See this link for mor information about the procedure.


    Good Luck!Is there any way to get rid pimple and blackhead scars?
    Cleanse your face with unboiled milk, gently rub a coarse cloth dipped in milk to remove the blackheads. Steam your face with herbs like lavender, lemon peel and mint leaves added to the water and let the skin soak up its goodness.

    Here are some ideas to heal the issue. Learn about nutrition, intake of water, and cleansing your system for long term health.








    Quick Action Plan for Acne





    1. Massage your skin, where needed, with bergamot, camphor, geranium, juniper, lavender, or neroli essential oils.





    2. Ayurvedic practitioners recommend making a paste of 陆 tsp each of turmeric and sandalwood paste with enough water, and applying to pimples. Also, drink half a cup of aloe vera juice twice daily until acne clears.





    3. Eat an organic whole foods diet, with plenty of organic cooked and raw vegetables, and whole fruits. Reduce animal fats and stressor foods such as caffeine, refined sugars, and alcohol, as well as colas, candies, and frozen and processed foods. Include more high fiber foods.





    4. Drink eight glasses of pure, filtered water daily. Also, daily have two glasses of raw juice, combining carrot, beet, and celery juice, or, carrot, cucumber, and lettuce (not iceberg), and spinach, with carrot predominating.





    5. Add 3-5 drops of crab apple flower essence to pure water and drink during the day. Rescue Remedy庐 is good for stress.





    6. Combine the tinctures of herbs such as sarsaparilla, burdock, and cleavers in equal parts, taking 陆 tsp three times a day. Drink an infusion of nettle several times a day and apply tea tree oil topically. An infusion of calendula mixed with equal parts of distilled witch hazel can be used as a cleansing wash. Steam sauna your face with red clover, lavender, and strawberry leaves.





    7. Useful homeopathy remedies are Pulsatilla, Silicea, Berberis, Ledum, Sulfur, Arsen alb., Belladonna, and/or Carbo veg.





    8. Enjoy full body immersion hydrotherapy treatments such as steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation, hot and/or cold compresses, and steam sauna your face with red clover, lavender, and strawberry leaves.





    9. Useful supplements are vitamin A, beta carotene, vitamin B complex, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc. Also include omega-3 fatty acids, brewer's yeast, chlorophyll, and pancreatic enzymes with meals.





    10. Expose your face to sun and air at least 30 minutes a day, and exercise daily. Keep your skin clean by washing your face three times a day with soap made from the herb calendula officinalis, or using other alternatives to soap. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. Squeezing pimples or whiteheads may cause infection. Keep the skin free of oil and use water-based products. Get sufficient sleep.





    11. Make facial masks from natural products; leave on overnight to help dry the skin if acne is caused by excess oil.





    12. For long term relief and health be sure to do a colon cleanse. This clears out the toxins in the blood and excess waste in the body. Colon cleansing will healp clear up a lot of issue, expecially acne.





    Cause


    Acne may be worsened at adolescence, during the pre-menstrual and/or mid-menstrual cycle due to hormonal action, and when under stress, on contraceptives, eating a poor diet that causes an over acidic system, or taking prescription and non-prescription drugs.





    Blackheads can form when the oil combines with skin pigments and gets trapped. Blackheads may suggest the need for better hygiene, or magnesium and vitamin A. Chronic, numerous whiteheads can also form during acne outbreaks, suggesting vitamin B1 deficiency or absorption problems. Consistent raised spots on the outside of the arms and sometimes even the thighs, resembling ';chicken skin,'; may suggest need for magnesium, vitamin A, or essential fatty acids or the need to avoid foods that inhibit the absorption of these nutrients, such as trans-fatty acids found in margarine and hydrogenated oils, such as cottonseed oil and palm kernel oil.





    Food allergies, allergies to facial creams, soaps, shampoos, makeup, and excess intake of refined sugars, can all cause or contribute to acne. Certain foods can also aggravate acne conditions because of their high-acid forming effects on the body, especially fried foods, trans fats, iodized salt, alcohol, hot and spicy foods, all processed foods, chocolate, fruit juices, carbonated beverages, caffeinated beverages, and dairy products. Excessive long-term intake of seafood or other high iodine foods may also cause acne in some people.





    Coexisting gum problems suggest the need for folic acid. A separate acne condition may occur in women 30-40 years old due to physical exercising or working all day with face makeup, lowered resistance due to stress, or hyper-response to bacteria or hormone problems. Another acne problem, acne rosacea (reddish spots in a pattern over nose and cheeks), may be a sign of low B vitamins or low hydrochloric acid in the stomach.





    Best of health to youI have lots of blackheads, scarring and get 2-3 pimples every week and i'm over 40!! when will it stop?
    nothing that i know of inexpensive. do you use moisturizer? lack of moisture in the skin can lead to acne, especially if you use strong astringents. chemical peels will give you good results but they are not inexpensive.
    Proactiv. its works wonderfully

    http://dermatology.about.com/cs/acnecome鈥?/a>
    Hmm... if you are over 40 you really need to go to a doctor for that. The stuff on the shelves are meant for teenagers. There is some kind of bacteria that is on your skin that makes you break out, acne vulagris (seriously). My cousin has the same thing, the doctor will be able to prescribe you some extra strength meds. If you don't want to go to the doc, try proactiv.
    Acne depends upon your system. I have NEVER used anything over the counter that works for me...it may be bacterial for you as well as it is for me. And, I hate to tell you this but nothing OTC that is cheap will assist if it is bacterial. Proactive is wonderful for kids and SOME adults...I have tried tetracycline, retin-a, etc. The only thing that assisted and took everything away was Accutane...you need to see a dermatologist to get it.
    Go get microdermabrasions...they work wonders on the skin. They cost money, but ask yourself if its worth it!
    zits could break out as long as you're alive. as young as 8 or as old as 80.





    cheap:


    pan-oxyl





    cheaper:


    tea tree oil, get a cotton ball, dip it in hot/warm water


    put a few drops of tea tree oil. use on your face.





    cheapest:


    salicylic acid.


    buy from your local drugstore. get a q-tip, dip it in and dab on affected areas. it will dry out in 2 or 3 days.
    What the skin needs is a product that clears pores and kills bacteria, thus preventing hair follicles from clogging and turning into acne. This is what you should be looking for if you want to get rid of those ugly acne.





    Before trying any treatment, I suggest you read this informational source that listed the most effective acne treatments available:





    www.17AcneTreatments.com





    Good luck.








    P.S. I also know someone who used to suffer from severe acne for 14 YEARS and finally got rid of it completely. She's sharing her story at her site:





    http://20six.co.uk/my-acne-solution





    Maybe you could learn from her inspirational story


    .
    my mother has the same problem! she uses a product from a website called www.club-cleo.com , works well! She's also over 40
    Don't eat chocolates stay out of the sun and eat lots of bananas keep your face clean dont touch your face ever.
    I have to agree that Pro-Activ solution is the way to go... it is unbelievable - what you see in the ads is true!!





    Other things to do is drink plenty of water, and keep your diet healthy.





    For the black heads the pore strips that ponds and biore make are fantastic. Nutrimetics also make a cream that does a similar thing - dries and draws the black heads out when you pull it off.
    if you have adult acne the best thing to do is to go to dermatologist (especially if you have insurance). They can prescribe a medication that is right for you (especially if you tied some over-the counter products) you might have to complete an antibiotic course (like minocyclin) or will be prescribed some washesor creams (like Retin-A, Sulfur wash and similar products) Good luck!
    haha i had the same problem ok, tmw pick up VITAMIN E from a CVS or local pharmacy, then biotin pills. After that treatment by a skin milk product called FACE MILK to cleasnse it then, a lightening product to get ride of the mark. ITS WORKS LIKE A CHARM, it changed my life and i feel like a fresh person
    For some of us it never stops. If your doctor will prescribe it Retin A works very well on pimples and blackheads. Plus, it brightens the complexion. It's usually only $20 per tube.
    I'm the same way!!! My complexion was beautiful when I was younger but now, all of a sudden, I seem to be breaking out more and instead of little zits I get huge pimples! I think it's mostly hormonal but I've been using Clean %26amp; Clear oil free foaming facial cleanser that seems to be helping a little bit.
    try making a mask with powdered oats and baking soda with water.........
    Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads,fresh juices,fish and yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/ Check out http://useinfo-blackhead.blogspot.com/ for more useful tips to control blackheads.

    well i have heard acnefree is not the best to get rid of scars what is is scar no more. But acne free will get rid of the majority of your blackheads so all and all it should be pretty good. I have a friend who uses acne free and her face is perfect like im not even kidding. So yes go ahead and buy the acnefree but it is very expensive and it really has only worked on one of my friends, so you can always go with something a little cheaper. What i really love is the neutrogina Wave! and it is very very cheap! you can buy it at any local drugstore and maybe if you have a little money left over, buy scar no more because it gets rid of scars successfully and very quickly.


    hope it helpsDoes AnceFree Get Rid Of Scars,Blackhead etc?
    AcneFree did not really work well. It did not get rid of blackheads or my acne scars and it was so expensive too. I suggest buying something a little less costly or if your family has benefits, go to a dermatologist and get him/her to prescribe you something. I did that and my face cleared very quickly. ProActiv works really well (you have to order it off the Internet), or try some simple things that are sold in department stores like Neutragena. You could just try washing your skin with simple soap and water, to see if that does anything. (it might, it might not). Also my sister tried this and it worked: buy vitamin E and open up the little capsules and put the liquid that is inside the capsule on your face. I hope one of this methods works for you. Good luck!!!! :)
    It's very difficult to get rid of acne scars. Laser resurfacing is probably the best method, but the recovery period is substantial...sometimes up to one year. If your scars are not too deep, Blu-u/Levulan treatments preceeded by micodermabrasions will be more effective. I recommend your take a look at Bill's Ace Solution as it also eliminates blackheads for good. http://www.billsacnesolution.com

    I've tried Mederma on small cuts and it works pretty well. I don't know how it would work for you, but it's pretty cheap, so try it. Remember to stay out of the sun.





    If it doesn't work your best bet is to go to a dermatologist and have him do a skin resurfacing.





    Good Luck!!!

    Blackheads? and acne? Scars?

    I think they are black head's... i have tiny black dots on my cheeks, and nose every where and its annoying... i also have acne on my nose, and on my cheeks, but not so much.....I don't know what to do...?


    Does anyone know a way that i can clear my skin from scars, and these dot's..i want fair skin, and very clean skin...^^!Blackheads? and acne? Scars?
    Pine Tar Soap! Seriously! Call around to your local pharmacies until you locate some. A friend of mine bought some for her teenager who had boil like pimples and blackheads all over his face and back. After 2 weeks they are all gone! Pine Tar Soap is only about $4.00 a bar and is made out of the same thing that Drawing Salve for boils is made of. You could also buy a tube of Drawing Salve to put on bad pimples at night.





    You can also buy some Retin A which comes in a tube and used to be by prescription only and will make your face peel drastically. (I was prescribed this about 26 years ago when I had a bunch of tiny bumps all over my face which turned out to be some sort of wart infestation! Within a day, my face began to peel in sheets and I swear it took off 3 good layers of skin and the warts as well!) Try the Pine Tar Soap first as the Retin A is expensive.





    You can also dab Pine Sol on pimples with a Q-Tip. Because it is so strong, it will cause the skin to peel drastically. I used it to get rid of ring worm that I got from a friend's cat that I didn't realize was infested! Be VERY careful and only put a tiny amount directly on the pimple because it burns your skin (as does the Retin A) to cause the drying and severe peeling. Do NOT put it all over your face or you will be sorry!





    Aloe Vera gel is fairly inexpensive and is a natural antibiotic and is also proven to heal scars. Buy some of that as well.Blackheads? and acne? Scars?
    you should was your face like 2 or 3 times a day and don't scratch your face. also wear some lotion.don't was your face to many neither you don't want it to get dry because of it.

    Acne scars and blackheads?!?

    During my middle school days I had a major problem with acne and now I have so much acne scars! I did use some products before and it faded slightly but not completely! Is there anything I can do to make them go away? Also I have a lot of blackheads and I tried to get rid of them by facial scrubs from like clean and clear but it's not working. Someone told me something about steam but how does that work? PLEASE HELP!Acne scars and blackheads?!?
    ACNE SCARS:


    Completely getting rid of acne scars takes a long time. Getting rid of scars isn't very easy.





    Squeezing or picking at acne can damage the skin tissue around the acne. This can lead to the scarring that is such a concern for many people.








    If the nature of your scars is mild to moderate, then home remedies are sufficient. There are many lotions based on alpha hydroxyl acid and retinol. These lotions are very effective for the treatment of the acne scars. it also depends on the type of your skin. If you have a sensitive skin type, it will be better not to use lotions based on the above ingredients. They can harm sensitive skin. There is a specific range of medications to treat people who can not undergo retinol and alpha acid treatments. The most effective among them are lavender oil, aloe vera juice and rosehip seed oil. They can heal scars without harming the skin in the long run.





    I suggest trying aloe vera juice and putting that on your face at night where the scars are.





    Also, try lemon juice.


    To use the lemon juice treatment to remove your acne scar you will need to first wash your face with warm water. Then pour some lemon juice on a cotton ball, and then gently rub the effected acne mark area. For best results leave the lemon juice on your face for about 10 minutes and then dry the affected acne scar area.





    To start seeing results with the lemon juice it can take anywhere from one day and even up to three months. Results will vary depending on the seriousness of the acne problem.





    Another big factor in reducing or getting rid of acne scars is that you will also need to watch the kind of oils you are putting into your body. Some oils that you use is just screaming acne come and get me!





    One of the most common forms of vegetable oil is the sunflower oil. It is highly recommended that if you are using such oils in your cooking then you should consider stop using them to cook as it will only increase the risk of more acne break outs.





    By avoiding the use of vegetable oils in your cooking, it has been reported that it can be one of the leading factors in clearing up your acne by 50%. Even in sever cases it has been said that that people who stopped using such vegetable oils, have been completely relieved of any future acne outbreaks.





    Ready to hear this? Believe it or not by drinking more than the recommended 8 glasses of water daily will immediately begin to see results with getting rid of your acne scars. If you are a severe acne suffer you should stay away from carbonated drinks, and caffeine drinks such as coffee, and sodas.





    BLACK HEADS:


    Though the best way to remove blackheads is an area of contention, the most common method for getting rid of blackheads is to gently squeeze them. Removing the “stuff” inside of the blackhead helps the skin because you are relieving the pressure which causes the damage. We know it can be nearly impossible to leave a blemish alone so here are some tips for gentle blackhead removal:





    Step 1:Use a mild scrub or exfoliant to remove any dead cells and expose the blackhead.





    Step 2:Pat your face dry.





    Step 3:Place a slightly warm compress on your face for approximately 10-15 minutes in order to soften the blackhead, making it easier to remove.





    Step 4:Pat your face dry again.





    Step 5:Place a piece of tissue on the tip of each finger to avoid slipping, which could tear the skin and cause further damage.





    Step 6:Gently apply even pressure to both sides of the blackhead by pushing down, then up around the blemish. You’re trying to apply the pressure from *underneath* the blackhead.





    Only attempt this once or twice. If it does not “pop”, you may bruise the skin, make the blackhead worse, and could cause scarring.








    If you want to get rid of blackheads you're going to stop using oil-based makeup and skin treatmentsAcne scars and blackheads?!?
    There are kinds of cosmetic... not surgeries.. more like procedures that you can have done. I've seen it done, it's some kind of weird laser, and it works wonderfully. I would suggest seeing a dermatologist for the black heads.
    Biore strips remove all of my blackheads %26amp; I have them heavy..You can find them at local drug stores. They work miracles. For the acne scars ask a doctor..but if not try some sort of cream for healing scars.
    Try to use orange peel : apply it on affected areas.


    Apply lemon juice on affected areas


    Use fenugreek leaves

    Hi I'm pretty much in same boat. i have tried everything going, i have been on roaccutane which is great for clearing spots, but it s not guaranteed to keep spots at bay forever, but its worth looking into. there is a contraceptive pill called dianette which is also great, but i have came of it now because you can only take it for so long, since i have come off it my skin is very oily so for the time being i have been using Clearasil deep pore wash for a deep clean, then no7 micro dermobrasion facial scrub which is great for smoothing out your skin. combine this with a facial steamer. I'm not saying my tips gonna work miracles as i still suffer from spots but it does make a little difference. have you heard of Nlite that's a procedure to reduce spots and scarring but its a bit pricey.
    You might need to get some dermabrasion and a few facial peels. My newphew was in sports and had the same problem.

    Easy way to get rid of blackheads / spot scars!?

    Hia,


    Well I've recently noticed that I've got some blackheads and spot scars on my nose in that little crease bit (if ya get me!) and its quite red and it really bothers me.


    Is there any simple way to get rid of them that doesn't effectively make me spend a load of money??


    Please help!Easy way to get rid of blackheads / spot scars!?
    For scars, I bought concentrated lemon juice (just don't add water) and I rubbed it over where I needed to get rid of scars and after 2 weeks, it did. For blackheads, there are scrubs and masks at Longs that you can try.Easy way to get rid of blackheads / spot scars!?
    I had acne for about a year and a half and in the end used some acne tablets the doctor gave me they work so well! But I have been left with acne scars and I used duac gel which worked REALLY well but then stopped working so my scars are a lot more mild but now I just have to wait a while for them to fade.


    By the way you take the tablet once a day after meals, it stops the infection in the pores so it just stops acne forming. The duac gel you use twice a day and is a little sticky but only for a little while.





    Good luck!!!!
    well you and me and like a zillion other people get to deal with those nasty little black dots from pores that get dirt and oils on the top which gives them the blackness to them. anywho, what i do is use my fingers to squeeze them clean until the clear liquid comes out and then i get the rest of them. next i wash my face in water and then i clean my face with toner. toner you can get in the make-up isle for like 5 6 bucks, and its really worth it. it works for me and then to keep them away i wash my face with it twice a day.
    First cleanse ur face twice a day. steaming ur face will also help. then to get rid of scars use cream containing hydroquinin but use it after getting rid of blackheads cos it can lead to more darkning around pores. i knw one such product named melacare but use it at night only. if u do so u can see the difference in 1 week. hope it helped.
    get blackhead removers and some sprays that cover scars and cuts.
    Try a lil home remedy. Take lemon cut in wedges and rub on the area that needs clearing...bd

    How do i get rid of blackhead scars?

    I used to squeeze my blackheads all the time and i had stopped and i was being so good and wasn't popping any and then yesterday i squeezed it because i'm stupid and now i have a big ugly scar on my nose. It's not even like a little hole, it's a full on, gigantic, dark spot on my nose! Does anyone have any quick solutions to get rid of the scar? I already tried to cover it up with makeup, it didn't really work.





    ]:How do i get rid of blackhead scars?
    Okay!! Thankyou sooo much! I was a bout to do the same thing 2day!! u saved me!


    smash an aspirin and using a drop of water, make a paste and apply to scar. Leave on for 10 minutes then wash of (its a scrub).


    That will remove the outer layer and make it lighter.


    Then, take a cotton ball soaked in lemon juice and apply to area, and leave it on for 20 minutes. Lemon juice lightens dark marks.


    and finally, put a dollop of aloe vera on area and let it soak in. Aloe vera gel lightens scars and heals the skin.





    good luckerz!!!!=]]How do i get rid of blackhead scars?
    Oh I've been there, I get a lot of blackheads on my nose, the rest of my face is clean. Typically, the dark spot is scar tissue, after you wash your face use a tweezer and try to lift the dark spot, there'll be a thin layer of skin that will lift right off.
    i have done this many many times. I use cold rag to close the pore and lessen the swelling.

    Help me on this best 10p!! How to get rid of pimple,scars, acne, large pores, blackhead and oily face?!!!?

    Please I need to know on this. I need to smaller my large pores, my too oily face, acne and pimple also scars and blackhead. Are there any natural substances that can cure this or any best facial products that I can get from pharmacy? Please, help me.Help me on this best 10p!! How to get rid of pimple,scars, acne, large pores, blackhead and oily face?!!!?
    I had the exact same problem, i was washing my face every night and would constantly be changing from product to product.


    i even went to my doctor and she prescribed a cream for my face and it still didn'tt work.


    as for the oily part goes, you can pick up blotting pads at a drug store which really help, you would be amazed to see how much oil is really on your face.


    as for the acne, mines gone now, and all i have been doing is washing it once a week with a very mild cleanser and every night i put cocoa butter on my face, its very rich and is great for your skin. i think that from my experience acne gets worse the more you wash.


    for the scars, try pressing some garlic and applying it once a week to just the sacred areas. i cant really help with the large pores, but just try keeping simple one week, and try not using a lot of makeup to clog your pores. (maybe over Christmas break?)


    Help me on this best 10p!! How to get rid of pimple,scars, acne, large pores, blackhead and oily face?!!!?
    Try to stay away from fatty foods. Eating correctly is very important in terms of keeping acne away ( and your health in general). Also are you stressed in your life? People breakout often when they have alot of stress, like finals week. Acne is pretty much a bacterial infection on overdrive. Your blood rushes to the site of infection causing a protuding bump, hence the pimple.





    If you want OTC medicine, you can do a cream that contains benzoyl peroxide 10% or there is also a face wash from Clean and Clear with BP 10%. Make sure you wear sunscreen over it, because it does dry out your skin. If you're a young person, its probably puberty, so get over it, its natural. I had this problem up until i was 21, I changed my diet and used face wash, I've controlled it well since then.
    Go to your dermatologist! I started getting acne on my forehead around 12 also. by the time i was 14, it was everywhere on my face, and starting on my back. I went to the dermatologist a little after I turned 14, after trying clean and clear, Clearasil, PROACTIVE (didn't work, when i stopped using it, i completely broke out horribly), and a few other commonly known products. The dermatologist prescribed me Acutane, which is THE BEST acne solution ever!!! It completely eliminates everybody's acne. My derm. gives this to almost everybody with acne, and it take 5-7 months to cure your acne.





    You will be glad if you go to the derm. They specialize in skin and give you one on one attention unlike products that you buy over the counter. go. go. go. it will save you time, money, and stress over your acne. i wish i would have gone sooner.
    If you don't want to use harsh chemicals on your face, try using Cetaphil. I had this problem also. I tried everythinggg. Proactiv worked for a little while, then it just dried out parts of my face and made other parts oily. Cetaphil works great - my face didnt feel dried out or oily. It felt clean - after a week - my pores are visibly smaller, pimples are gone, and the scars dissapear
    go to a dermatologist regularly.

    Mecial treatments like skin resurfacing (done with a laser) and dermabrasion are two surgical ways of improving your skin. Both of these are costly and are a type of surgery. Chemical peels are designed to do the same thing but they burn off layers of skin from your face chemically. All of these are harsh treatments and should be researched and talked about with a doctor before deciding.I have a lot of scars from pimples and blackheads ive had in the past is there any way to get rid of them??
    I had scars too. I used fade out which got rid of mine completely. There's one for brown pigments and red. But time will heal a lot.
    Keep out from the sun and drink lots of water.





    The sun can actually aggravagte and cause ugly pigmentation.


    The scars and marks usually go of/fade off in a few months time.





    Take care. :):)





    Peace %26amp; Love,


    Madeline.
    if you have the time and patience then simply buy an exfoliateing sponge (got mine at CVS for $1.99) and then use a mild Antibacterial soap. my scars are going away, I saved myself $200 for getting a dermabrasion done at the salon.
    I dont know if this works, but my friends have used it and they say it works really well





    Mederma, its suppose to lighten scars and they use it for their acne scars.





    i have the same problem but i havent been able to buy myself this product, but i do plan on trying it out.
    Dermatologist.
    I had the same problem a few months back. What helped for me was Palmers Scar Serum. You can get it at CVS. It worked really well. It didn't completely go away but I saw a big improvement.
    Liquid Vitamin E will help with scars. I had an ugly scar on my forearm when I was younger and after only about 3 months of Vitamin E on it you would never know that it was there. I dont know how it worked but an older lady told me about it and it worked VERY well. I dont know about putting it on your face though. It is VERY thick...so that might be a problem.
    It's best to see a dermatologist about this, as they are professionals in this area.


    If you want to try an easier method first, you can buy scar serums at pharmacies (They may not work perfectly or at all though), you can try a microbead exfoliation cream, or you can get mild chemical peels.


    The most effective fixes come from the dermatologist, and only via them can you get safe, legal, and excellent dermabrasion, laser dermabrasion, high-grade chemical peels, scar excision, and other effective treatments.





    My advice is to try mild chemical peels first, and if they don't improve your skin, go one step further to the dermatologist.


    Also, what you may have heard about vitamin E is indeed true, and it should be noted that it works best to buy capsules and break them open, as the vitamin is fresher that way.

    You have a lot going on with your skin. Unfortunately, without seeing you face to face, I can't evaluate such things as grade of acne, etc. Therefore, it would be imprudent to suggest a course of action in regard to your skin and its problems . My suggestion would be to see an appropriate health care professional who can analyze your skin and propose the right regimen for you.
    wash your face
    Leaving freckles and scars out, I pop em'.
    daily skin care routine like CTMN i.e., cleanser, toner, moisturiser and nightcream keeps ur skin in good condition, weekly twice scrub and mask, depending on ur skin type.


    this is the basic regime, depending on the grade of your problem it may change


    blackhead is the sign of dirty skin, not kept clean, so keep washing your face as many times as u can
    you cant.
    Use Alpha Hydroxy Serum Plus
    Hi, If you can use fresh ground turmeric that is very good.Take each piece of lemon or tomato and rub it on your face. You may have a little something left on your face. Just leave it there. It's for your own good. They will make pimples disappear almost overnight. Putting toothpaste on your pimple before you go to bed as this reduces swelling overnight; dabbing egg white on your pimple and leave on for at least 20 minutes preferably overnight as this is supposed to ';Suck Out'; the greasy, nasty stuff; washing your face twice a day in warm salty water as this leaves your face oil free. Acne can be treated or avoided in one or more of the following ways: ? Washing often with a warm washcloth and soap several times a day. An abrasive soap or scrub is more effective than plain soap. ? Using medication containing benzoyl peroxide for mild acne. ? Avoiding oily greases and creams on the skin. ? And yes even avoiding large quantities of greasy or sweet food:) Wash you hand a few times a day to avoid oil transfer.
    It is important to use skin friendly products and not pinch the pustules so that there are no scars formed. A good soap like Neutrogena or Cetaphil is recommended. Mild oil free skin creams should only be used . This link should provide more remedies.

    Firstly scars there is a product called BIO oil which is fantastic, you would then have to try pimple/acne cream to find one that works for you, cos depending on how bad it is. There is silica or silicea tablets 'hair skin and nails' blackmores which help with skin conditons also. But i do suggest seeing a doctor if your acne/pimples are out of control, because there is medication that can help.
    drink lots of water and have proteins%26amp;vitamin containing tablets for problem free skin.follow this its really cool.


    try it
    apply amixture of honey and cinnamon in the ration 4:1 respectively leave for 15 mins and wash with water repeat for 1 week

    You just gave us alot of information.


    You need a question for us to answer it.


    But,if your asking how to get rid of all of this without going to a dermatologist,get some proactiv.

    OH I didn't see the part about cheap and worthwhile.


    Neutrogena does good with blackheads.


    And clean and clear does good with pimples.


    and makeup will cover the scars until theyre gone.

    Have you tried proactive I heard it works!
    If you have insurance go to a Derm. and get a scrip for Retina and apply it to your skin when you wash your face before bed time. best then and wash your face in the morning.





    You can also pay for Micro-dermabrasion and get Sal-peels done by a Dermatologist

    If you cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice out, and then mix it with 2 tsp. of water and rinse your face with this solution and then rinse your face off with cold water and pat dry everyday for about a week or two it should get rid of most backheadsI have a lot of blackheads i tried popping(scars), over the counter (no solution), n masks..PLEASE HELP ?
    You should use Bior Blackhead strips. How they work is you wet your nose put the strip on it dries. You rip the strip of as it was tape and you can literally see you blackheads with the roots on the strip.
    Go to Walmart and get this Face Wash...

    That is What i use and it Works.
    I use baking soda in facial cream twice a week. Its not instant but I have noticed fewer in under two weeks. I have tried almost everything out there too and the stuff that said that cleared blackheads didn't work and ended up drying my skin out. My mom then told me to do this and I wish that she had said something sooner. I could have saved so much money!
    Biore works well....

    I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet because it is the #1 doctor recommended treatment for scars: MEDERMA!!!! It works miracles. My mom's doctor recommended it to her after she had surgery and I use it for a scar on my face. It costs about 30 dollars at CVS, but it is 100% worth it. You get what you pay for afterall.

    check out the testimonials on the siteEffective chicken pox scars and blackheads remover?
    Scars are forever, but there are many options to make them less noticeable.





    Tattooing, yes sounds dumb, but Tattoo artists and several beauticians will tattoo color into your skin that matches your skin tone to cover up scars.





    There is also scar fading cream, takes awhile to be effective, but it does help to diminish scars.





    There is also a product by Clean and Clear, it is an acne mark fading peel, and it works quite well. I use it about once a week, and the red marks left behind by acne have slowy become more and more diminished.





    Toners also work well to even out skin tone, and make marks fade out, while also help to calm the skin down and remove blackheads.
    Oh, yes there IS a solution. Use the anti-anging soaps with beta-hydroxy or alpha-hydroxy. I swear it works!! I have some scars from acne, and I tried EVERYTHING. Then I tried Olay, and it gets rid of EVERYTHING. For deeper scars, I use Scarzone, they sell it at Walmart. I used it for my stretch marks and cesarian scar and now you can't even see it.
    I am sorry to tell you that there is nothing you can do about the chicken pox scars, they are there forever, but Proactiv is a great black head remover. It's a cleanser and medication.There are suctions and extractors you can also use to remove blackheads.

    Search up ';Cee En's Acne Solution'; or ';best acne solution ever'; on ebay.

    My sister and cousin who both have major acne have tried the product and they both give it thumbs up. I have also heard many great feedbacks about this cream.





    I don't have a problem with acne, but it seems to have great results on my sister who has moderate to severe acne. Her acne swelling went away overnight.








    I hope this helps. =)

    Can anyone with experience help me get rid of pimple scars/stains and blackheads.

    for blackheads - steaming. boil water and put your face over the rising steam (make sure not to scald yourself)... after a few minutes, you'll notice your skin feeling looser and dirt coming off. now use a scrub. doing this twice a week should gradually and safely remove blackheads.





    pimple scars are permanent tho. You might want to try those scar vanishers but I'e never heard of them working for anyoneCan anyone with experience help me get rid of pimple scars/stains and blackheads.
    have a very effective %26amp; VERY CHEAP solution to your problem : just add any type of : TOOTHPASTE over night on your pimples...-this will dry them out in a few days !!! It's definately the CHEAPEST way to get rid off those pimples


    Use straight rubbing alcohol.


    Its the best anectdote that is.


    It might dry your fact out, but it's worth it.





    You may also want to try Acnefree. its pretty good too.


    Alcohol is guaranteed to work. : )


    Can anyone with experience help me get rid of pimple scars/stains and blackheads.



    The best way to get rid of blakcheads and pimples, is to drink plenty of water, and camomile tea. After washing my face thoroughly I would make some camomile tea, and take a cotton ball and use it as an astringent. Try that and it should help.



    Help! I've tried lots of stuff to get rid of acne scars and blackheads! Nothing has worked!?

    THIS WORKS FAST %26amp; CHEAP!!!


    I used Tetracyclin, Proactive, Retina A and had many expensive facials with less than good results.


    This has worked for me and many many other happy people.





    Go to pharm.,Drug store, or Walmart, buy ';PURPOSE'; bar of soap - Blue box - Made by Johnson %26amp; Johnson - wash your face with this


    2-3x's per day. Also pick up a LOW strength Benzoyl-peroxide cream, apply the cream by dabbing


    to the individual blemishes.... DONT rub it in works using a oxidation/reduction reaction..It will unclog


    dry it out and bring it to a head...DONT over use this or put anywhere else on your face. It will cause drying and make you look worse.





    Salicylates such as found in regular asprin among other products work very similar but also remove layers of skin...


    other over the counter creams with this product will dry out pimples but maybe too hash and cause surrounding skin trauma..


    I have seen many people recommending crushing asprin and making a paste which probably will dry out the blemish but again


    pretty strong and probably will cause more tissue damage and bigger scars as an anti inflammatory


    probably would take the reddness out... again pretty harsh for sensative skin.





    Also, If need which probably will for moisture ASK FOR ';NUTRADERM lotion'; - the orginal not the new stuff, this works


    great and wont clog pores or leave a residue on your skin...Any lotion that is completely oil free and hypoallergic should


    work but again I recommend Nutraderm. I have heard from people online that ';Purpose'; also makes a lotion that is good, Nutragena, and Nivea


    make good products also. I recommend Nutraderm from experience and my dematologist.





    ';Purpose Bar'; %26amp; ';Nutraderm'; are oil free and hypoallergic they contain no perfumes and are great for both men and women.


    I have also heard great reports of this soap helping improve skin tone. Some people recommend the ';Purpose luqid soap'; saying


    that the bar did dry out their skin some. The rational behind using the bar is that there are no ingredients in it that will clog pores, and


    according to dermatologists they recommend the Bar. I have also heard good responses from ';cetaphil soap';. These products are safe for all skin colors and tones. I highly discourage use


    of Proactive and other harsh chemicals for people with some natural color in their face due to the bleaching and drying effect it has


    shown in many many people.





    Additonal TIPS: acne, pimples, etc are frequently cause by a bacteria or hormone issues that cause clogging of pores.


    DONT PICK POP POKE (your hands are the dirtiest part of your body) and will cause: infections, spreading of germs, more breakouts and scarring


    DONT EVER listen to people online who tell you to scrub your sensative skin or use harsh chemicals


    such as: Lemon juice, vinagar, alcohol, etc... DONT EVER use that APRICOT CRAP!!! DONT USE


    PROACTIVE- this is expensive and harsh it may kill the bacteria cause also Benzoyl based wash but


    will irritate skin and cause bleaching of face and neck.... Other similar treatments may work.. also


    things such as Accutane but have SERIOUS side effects such as Major Depression, %26amp; birth defects in unborn children, among others


    If you wear make up make sure it is oil free, %26amp; hypoallergic...Eating healthy...Drinking plenty of water.. changing pillow cases freq.


    etc ...avoiding dirty sports equp. such as helmets...can not hurt...Acne/pimples again are caused by pores/hair follicles becoming plugged


    up, this plugging then causes an inflammatory reaction - reddness and infection (pimple)... It has been shown in many studies this most


    often not caused by what you eat (chocolate etc... or how clean you are) but most often by either excess oils plugging pores or a bacteria


    on the skins surface. - Proactive works in some people because it is a strong Benzoyl peroxide based washed but is most freq. to strong


    for people with sensative skin - this is why alot of people get excessive drying and flaking, rashes, bleaching or breakouts from the product.


    Retina-A does decrease the bacterial growth on your face but also removes dead/living skin, this can work well in some individuals and


    has been shown to reduce wrinkles and scars but again I feel this is pretty harsh on sensative skin prone to breakouts. If you choose


    Retina-A never use this product during the day only at night due to the sensativity it will give you to the sun. You must also get a perscription


    for this product and I really don't believe it is worth the damage it does to your skin. In some rare cases for very deep/large boils and cyst types


    of pimples oral antibiotics maybe needed but I would first recommend trying ';purpose'; and a low dose ';benzoyl-peroxide cream'; along with a good


    oil free moisturizer ';Nutraderm... etc'; this does work well.





    THIS WORKS FAST AND CHEAP!!! I no longer get expensive facials, take oral antibiotics, or even NEED makeup... I am very happy - Have


    very good skin... and have many many other happy friends... THANKS again to my WONDERFUL


    DERMATOLOGIST... TRY THIS!! GOOD LUCK.... PS. ';PURPOSE'; costs about $3





    PSSS- for your specific question... scars are very hard to get rid of will reduce in color and depth over time --- new skin growth.. 1st treat the acne before doing anything... i have heard good results from ';Maderma'; but takes a long time.. there are also have been good results from collagen treatments.. I wouldnt recommend Macrodermabraision for people with sensative skin... lazar treatments etc.. may work.. improve your skin and the tone.. and I bet you will be happy.. I had reddness.. scars etc.. that are all gone now.. just took time...Help! I've tried lots of stuff to get rid of acne scars and blackheads! Nothing has worked!?
    Dear,


    You have other problems too. You are constipated, Eyes twitch , blister in mouth or sore throat, quite often catch bad cold etc.





    The remedy lies in changing your heating habits. Leave all the dead foods, canned foods or pulses/cereals.change over to fresh fruits and vegetables whether raw or half cooked.


    With this you wud find bowls clear up fast and you wud start recovery very soon. If you could add up exercise and or walk up to 4 kms it wud be an added advantage.

    Ive been using pure lye soap my friend bought some and i tried it and it has cleared my acne up and no blackheads in two weeks now.
    The most effective way to prevent acne scarring is to leave the acne alone, however this doesn鈥檛 mean you can鈥檛 seek expert advice on how best to treat your acne. Acne scarring is most often the result of self-excoriate behavior such as the tendency to pick or squeeze the pimples.





    There are several remedies that you can try from oral anitibiotics to laser surgery (the best being the harmonic pixel laser).
    read tips on reducing the appearance of scars and more on treating acne, skincare and home remedies on this site
    To tell you da truth, I need answers to (kinda). Try putting cocoa butter on your face. Gradually, the scars will become smaller and fade. The black require more cleansing. Try taking a hot shower(will open pores) and cleaning your face by applying rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and rubbing your face with it.

    Please don't mention ProActive, doesn't work for me.


    I used to steam my face %26amp; remove blackheads, then use a facial mask, once a week but I haven't had enough time lately... I do use a toner %26amp; moisturiser each morning%26amp;night after shower/washing face.

    it realy sounds to me like you need to go see a dermatolagist if your acne is really bad but if its only around your mouth its hormonal expecially if your a teenager. i'd suggest the best way to get rid of them it go get your skin diagnosed by a beauty therapist adn have them tell you what you need ....its not that expensive. and the only way to prevent scars is DONT pICK OR SQUEEZE YOUR PIMPLES OR BLACK HEADS. it leads to scars and broken capilleries ....have you evr sen those old prople who have red noses and sheeks yes they are broken capilleries on their face and they spread so dont pick them get it professionally dont because your skin may look fine now but in say 15 years it will all show.


    How can I get rid of pimples, blemishes, blackheads, pimple scars, etc in around a month?
    use something which is natural and doesn't cause any side effects, use face packs, which contains strawberry,sandal wood, or turmeric kind of things. maintaining ur diet properly is also very important


    eat lots of leafy vegetables, drink lots of water, juices etc..


    try doing some meditation and yoga therapies..
    PoreClears works better than ProActive does. ProActive never worked for me either.





    If you want to try a natural remedy, using egg whites and egg yolk as a mask really helps. It's pretty gross, but it really does help if you leave it on for about 20 minutes a day.
    you don't need to continue with toning creams to avoid bleaching your skin.look for a cleansing liquid basically for your face and avoid oily food items because you have much oil in your system.this will reduce if not eradicate pimples on your body.good luck.

    ANTI BLEMISH SOLUTIONS NIGHT TREATMENT GEL from clinique to clean your skin


    it really effective
    Here are some easy home resipies:





    Apple Zinger Facial Mask (Oily and Acne Prone Skin)


    Take 1 medium size apple, grated fine, 5 tbs. honey. Mix the grated apple and honey well. Smooth over skin and let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cool water.





    Cool as a Cucumber Yogurt Facial (Normal/Oily Skin)


    1/2 cucumber


    1 Tbsp plain yogurt


    Puree cucumber in blender mix in yogurt, apply to face. Leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse well.





    Honey Mask (Oily/Blemished Skin)


    Massage a small amount of slightly heated honey onto skin and leave on for 10-15 minutes. Be sure to wash off all the honey with lukewarm water or the honey left will clog your pores, resulting in more acne. Wheat germ may be added for its abrasive action, protein and nutrients.





    Pineapple Olive Oil Mask


    In a blender, combine 4 large pineapple chunks or 1/2 cup canned, drained pineapple and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Blend until almost smooth. Apply mixture to face with fingertips and leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse face with warm water and pat dry.





    Tomato Blemish Remedy


    1 tomato, ripe, chopped


    1 tsp. lemon juice


    1 T instant style oatmeal or old fashioned rolled oats


    Blend all ingredients until just combined, in a paste. Apply to blemished skin, making sure the mixture is thick enough to stay in place. Leave in place 10 minutes. Remove with damp washcloth, and rinse and tone.





    Honey Yogurt Exfoliating Facial Scrub


    Mix 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar with 陆 teaspoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of plain yogurt. Smooth the mixture over your face and leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse off using lukewarm water.





    Oatmeal Exfoliating Facial Scrub


    Mix one pack of instant oatmeal with water to create a paste. Once the paste is formed, dab the mixture onto your entire face. Let the mixture set for approximately 2 minutes and rinse off with cold water. According to experts oily skin should be treated with an oatmeal mask to get good results. Oatmeal when mashed not only acts as a great scrub but also effectively soaks away the excess oil from your face. The usage of oatmeal paste must be followed by a cold water rinse that helps in contracting the pores.





    Seawater


    Wash your face twice a day in warm, salty water. This helps leave your face clean and oil-free -- without employing any potentially irritating products or soaps.





    Toning: Egg Whites


    Using egg whites is the cheapest and easiest way to tone your skin at home. Simply separate a few raw egg whites into a bowl and apply directly on the facial skin after cleansing. Let the egg white dry for at least 15 minutes and rinse it off with lukewarm water for an instant glow. For acne, take one egg white and put it directly on top of the pimple for 20 minutes.





    Garlic


    Peel and mash eight cloves of fresh garlic. Apply to face avoiding the area around the eyes. Leave on for about 15 minutes. Wash off with a warm cloth.





    Toothpaste


    Put toothpaste on your pimples before you go to bed, should help reduce swelling overnight. Make sure it is the paste not the gel.





    Baking Soda Solution


    You will need 1 tbsp. baking soda, 1 tbsp. water. Mix together ingredients and apply on face allowing it to sit for 15 minutes before rinsing it with warm water. Baking Soda is very cheap and one box will last you a very long time. You can also use baking soda as an exfoliator: be careful when applying it to your face, since it is a very effective scrub. Massage the baking soda into your skin for ten to fifteen seconds and rinse. Your face is now clear of the surface cells that will cause many acne spots.

    Aaaaahhhhh, ZITS, BLACKHEADS, AND ACNE SCARS?

    I have some zits on my forehead but just a couple, but mostly ACNE SCARS! How can I get rid of them? I have a lot of blackheads on my nose and I have tried those pore strips, but they just don't work, how can I get rid of them? HOW CAN I GET CLEAR SKIN PERIOD?Aaaaahhhhh, ZITS, BLACKHEADS, AND ACNE SCARS?
    You can use any product with salicylic acid in it for nose and forehead breakouts. Just wash your face with something like Neutrogena's Deep Clean washing gel. It deep cleans your pores and keeps them clean if you are regular about washing in the morning and at night. If you become a bit too dry, just use it once per day and see if the results are better.





    As for scars, a product like Mederma would help. Both of these are found in most drugstores.Aaaaahhhhh, ZITS, BLACKHEADS, AND ACNE SCARS?
    Woah i want to ask the same question.
    Try not to touch your face...it's a hard habit to break but dirt, oil, and germs will get into your face and block your pores.


    A common myth is that if you have oily skin, you should not moisturize it. This is wrong. If you have oily skin, you need to moisturize it, because if you do not, your skin will produce more oil to compensate. Try a good oil-free moisturizer, or Enzymion (from Lush). This is fast-acting and the fruit enzymes in it break down oil on the skin's surface- no more shiny noses!


    Biore and Clean %26amp; Clear are good products. Try Clean %26amp; Clear Black head scrub and Biore nose strips.


    When you use a nose strip wet your nose with a clean face cloth and then dry your hands.


    After that open the packet that the nose strip is in, and rip the little tabs for a better fit on your nose.


    Put the sticky side on your nose and wait for around 10 minutes.


    After 10 minutes, the nose strip should be hard papier mache. Remove it.


    Another option is using a black head removing tool. These are available at Sephora for 16 dollars. You need to steam your face first, and make sure that the tool is FREE OF GERMS AND BACTERIA.


    Exfoliating with a facial scrub is a great way to get rid of blackheads. Don't use it if you have bad acne, as it will rub off the top part of the acne and will spread to other parts of your face, which means more acne to deal with.
    try proactiv.. it works for me
    ACNEXUS.com. It is ONE step ALL NATURAL and works 500 times better than proactiv or Murad. I've fought Acne for 17 years, and this did more in 2 uses than years with everything else. It's cheaper than other things, quicker to use (you just wash your face with it) and it comes with a 100% money back guarentee. Try it!!
    proactiv maybe, murad, there are alot of acne medicines you can try.





    .go to a dermatoligist! my sis did and she got a lot of great tips. they will help you and sometimes they can even give u a pill to take that will help your acne.





    idk about acne scars, they mite never go away but all i know is you probably got them from popping your pimples which is a big no no.





    cleanse your face every day in the shower and don't touch your face because your oils on you hand or fingers can cause ance break outs.





    good luck and c a dermatoligist they can really help you.
    That's a tough question. Most acne scars fade over time, so don't worry. Everyone has to go through the whole pimple thing, most people can't get completely clear skin. I suggest washing your face often and with exfoliating scrubs, and staying away from much makeup and foundation that can cause more pimples. Be careful not to pop any more! Also, rub Vitamin E oil --break the capsule-- on the scars, oil helps with all kinds of scars. Good luck!
    Okay. I have used proactiv and it is not as good as it may seem. let's just say that it's not as good as it may seem. However, I know something that will absolutely work for you.





    Try Clinique Acne Solutions :


    Not only will it work, but it only takes a short period of time.
    I went to my moms this weekend and used her extractor, which was the most amazing thing. It is used to take off whiteheads and blackheads off of your skin. It works amazingly. I was so addicted I was taking everything off and now my face is so much more clear and prevents it from scarring, unlike when you pop it yourself which is so bad. I think you can get this at any beauty supply or beauty store that sells make up like Sephora or Ulta Cosmetics etc. With the scarring the best thing I think is Mederma, which you can get at any drug store. Also make sure you exfoliate as much as you can when you wash your face which removes dead skin cells and bacteria. There is one more thing if it is really serious you may want to look into microdermabrasion, it is actually pretty inexpensive but is well worth the money and renews your skin.
    I don't have blackheads or scars, but I've been using the new Olay hydrate %26amp; cleanse face wash with ';micro-bead cleansing serum'; and I've had clear skin for months now.
    Queene Helene MInt Julep Masque -- three bucks at drugstores. this stuff is amazing if you use it regularly. it will dy out zits, bring blackheads to the surface, help oily skin, and cleanse deep down. its amazing. and it feels all tingly cuz it works!!!!!!!!!
    Acne Scar Treatments


    Before committing to any specific method of treatment for your scarring, make sure you do a LOT of research first. Every treatment option has pros and cons, and every treatment option will improve the appearance of some people’s scars while worsening the appearance of others. These treatments can also be very expensive, which means you need to be very selective about your dermatologist – sometimes they’re in it for their patients, other times they’re in it for the money. Here are some tips to help you pick the right skin doc for you:





    When initially selecting a dermatologist, visit several different ones. Contrast what the different doctors tell you and follow it up with a little research of your own to determine which one is really the best for you. Beware of doctors that pressure you to commit on the first visit and push new and expensive procedures on you. Search for the doctors name (with quotes) in a search engine like Google and see what you find. If you’re not comfortable with any of them, move on and keep looking.


    Get each doctor to tell you very specifically what course of treatments they would prescribe for your scarring, and then get them to explain to you in plain english exactly why they are prescribing that particular course. If you think you may forget, write it down or bring along a voice recorder. Follow up their advice with your own research and if you receive opposing treatment plans, bring them up to other dermatologists and see how well they respond.


    Insist on seeing before and after pictures of their previous patients. How many of the people in the ‘before’ pictures have scarring that resembles yours? Can you contact any of these people?


    How long have they been practicing dermatologists? What treatments do they have experience prescribing and performing?


    Some people who have had their acne scars successfully treated report that as they age, the scarring gradually returns. Other people who have been unable to reduce their scarring report the exact opposite effect. My point is that everyone is different. Be realistic with your expectations and above all: research, research, research! Try to get in contact with people who have successfully treated scarring that is similar to your own and learn what they did. Sometimes you can find these people through dermatologists, support groups, and online forums and communities. We’ve added some links to a few online sources at the end of this article. Now on to the treatments:





    Subcision


    Cost: Up to $1000 per treatment.


    Procedure: Subcision is a treatment where the upper layer of skin is detached from the deeper tissue, allowing blood to flood into the opening and raise the skin in the treated areas. This is usually used to treat shallow and rolling scars and often requires multiple treatments.





    Punch Treatments


    Cost: $50-$150 per treatment.


    Procedure 1 - Punch Replacement: This method involves physically cutting out the entire scar and replacing it with a skin graft.


    Procedure 2 - Punch Excision: This method involves physically cutting out the entire scar and then stretching the surrounding skin closed around the wound and letting it heal, thus avoiding the need for a skin graft.


    Procedure 3 - Punch Elevation: This method is similar to subcision; it involves cutting the scar loose from the deeper tissue below it and then letting it heal. This usually results in the treated area elevating slightly, which can diminish the appearance of certain types of scarring.





    Chemical Peels


    Cost: $600-$800 per treatment.


    Procedure: One of many different types of acid is applied to the skin, allowed to sit for a period of time and then removed. The acid removes the top-most layer of skin. This usually results in a slightly smoother end result and is helpful for very mild scarring.





    Dermabrasion


    Cost: $1200-$2000 per treatment.


    Procedure: Dermabrasion (not to be confused with microdermabrasion) is a process where the top-most layer of skin is removed mechanically. The skin to be treated is first numbed, and then a rotating abrasive disk is used to ‘sand’ off the top-most layer of skin. This is a painful procedure and does require some down time. Many people who have tried this approach have found that it provides only short-term results, and that the scars do grow back over time.





    Laser Resurfacing


    Cost: $2500+ per treatment.


    Procedure: This is very similar to dermabrasion in that it involves physically removing the upper-most layer of skin to achieve a smoother effect – but instead of abrasive disks or pads, lasers are used. This is very expensive and the results appear to be very similar to those reported by people who have undergone dermabrasion – the scars can return.

    Acne Scar Creams


    There is certainly no shortage of creams and balms that claim to cure everything from impotence to scarring, but do they work? Most of the reports we have found say “no”, however there are always a few who claim success with these methods, so here is a list of the ones we have found that have had at least one reported success story associated with them (and we only found two!).





    Creams containing cocoa butter and vitamin E help keep your skin soft, elastic and healthy. Regular use of such creams may help scars diminish naturally over time. We would recommend combining this with an overall healthy lifestyle.


    Apply a 3x solution of medical-grade hydrofluoric acid (or a product which contains it) to the scarred area twice daily for one to two weeks. Do this ONLY under the supervision of your dermatologist because this CAN damage your skin.





    Balck headsIt can be easier to prevent blackheads than it is to get rid of them. Instead of trying a blackhead home remedy, consider these simple steps for clear and healthy skin:





    Wash face daily with a mild cleanser and warm water. Be gentle. Don't use bar soap on the face because it can clog pores.


    Gentle exfoliants can be used to remove excess skin cells so they don't clog up pores. This can also be a good blackhead home remedy if you do get blackheads.


    Don't use make-up on skin that is prone to blackheads. If you do use make-up, use a hypo-allergenic brand.


    Avoid oily foods. Instead, eat foods high in beta-carotene, like carrots, cantaloupe, and other yellow-orange fruits and veggies.


    If you have blackheads, don't pick at or squeeze them. That is not a good way of how to get rid of blackheads. It will cause more inflammation in the area and just make matters worse.
    I agree.


    I used the blackhead strips.


    They dont work.


    But if the scars are really bad, go to a dermatologist.


    Other than that, some at home facials really work.


    And washing your face everyday will help to.


    You can go to google and look for some ';at home facials';.


    They work.








    Good Luck.
