hey ladies... ummm since i have got on
birth control i have had a couple really
bad breakouts... it seems to be getting a
little bit better but like for of the evil
pimples have left some really noticeable
scars. i hate them ... the acne is bad
enough without having to worry bout the
scars too. does any body have any ideas or
tricks to help the fade or make them go
completly away?
thanks...

its probably due to the hoprmones
my advice if its REALLY bad see a
dermatologist
other than that try some nice and easy
face masks
they arent harsh on skin and they work
great!

I saw this product on TV that makes the
scars fade, they don't go away, but they
become less noticable, but i forget what
it was called

Some brands of birth control help people
with acne. Some dermatologists even
prescribe birth control to females just to
help with that issue, not using it as any
form of birth control at all; just acne
control. Maybe you can go to your obgyn
and tell her what is going on and see if
you can switch birth controls to one that
will help your acne rather than make it
worse.

She doesn't need help with acne, she needs
help with the scars.

you should pop the pill and rub the oil
on the scar.

Nope, links to sites that solicit products
are not generally allowed.

Get maderma for scars at walmart. It's
about 11 bucks, but it really works!
Also, there's a product made by AcneFree
for acne scars. It comes in a white and
blue box and you can find it on the face
wash aisle at walmart. It comes with a
lotion for old acne areas and a
moisturizer. I'd buy both and begin a
daily regimen. I bought them both for my
husband, and I can promise that they work.
In 8 weeks if you use the maderma daily,
your scar will not even exist!
