Originally posted by orange88:see a doctor, the only way serious! lolx as for proactive, i tried it before, it will stop working after you stop using it. before you want to dump or waste your money on anything, just consult a skin specialist to identify the prob man! you dont have to buy their products, just ask the fella whats wrong with you lolx
you want to eliminate the cause in the first place
microdermabrasion works for scars, but it is quite costly and you have to undergo it at minimum of 10 times to clear the scars. Its a miracle really! But you want to keep the results, so after that you have to do it once a month! -
Now i just wanna get my pimples away forever,should i seek help from national skin centre?should i laser to make my scars better first and then treat my pimples at the same time?
so how much does microdermabrasion cost? -

GP = general pract, neighourhood doctorOriginally posted by wenyong90:gp is? -
do not consult a gp, i've tried, its useless... they might give u antibiotics but the acne problem will come back again if you continue your present lifestyle..
Opt for ANY skin specialist, just tell them your problem, and they will give u a medication for your acne
as for your scars, you will need microdermabrasion, its the most efficient and cheapest costs, varies from 70 to 80 for one session. for this you can consult your skin specialist for more information. The result will stay but of course you need to take care of it once you've achieve it.
if you're wary about the cost, just get their consultation, but i have to say results do not come in a day, it will probably take 6 months to a year to achieve sammi cheng's skin lolx -
1) you should not pop the pimples; let them "ripe" and "burst" on themselves.Originally posted by wenyong90:This problem started since 2 yrs ago...I started to get lots of pimples and i poped them in the past...Now thaT I had stopped poping them...There's already a number of pimple scars bothering me...At the same time,i still have pimples growing now and den...It makes me lost my confident and i dont really dare to look people face to face.
so are there any ways to recove my scars and reduce my pimple? Are there any good treatment centre to recover me from my scars and pimple problem effectivly?Thanks
2) dont lose your self-confidence due to your pimples; when you meet anyone just take it as if you dont have pimples at all.
i always meet people from everywhere, and so far no problems arose due to pimples on my face. the reason: i assume that pimples are non-existent!
so why can't you?
3) to reduce your pimples, you can
---relax, dont be too stressed or overly anxious
---have sufficient sleep
---drink sufficient amts of water
---moniter your daily bowels
---apply some cucumber slices/watermelon skin slices onto your face, regularly, for at least 10 mins
4) go to Kwong Wai Shiu Hospital Traditional Chinese Medicin(TCM) Ctr and seek treatment.
I do not recommend any western medicines in treating pimples---as I have used them before, only to see my pimple problems worsened---before I went to see TCMs................. -

Yes, I agree with you... Looks is quite very important especially when you're making your 1st impression... The other is the way you carry yourself... No matter what happens to you physically, it can only change you physically... You could still be very much who you are, unless you allow for otherwise...
When my face got real bad, I told myself [b]I'm not gonna be stuck like that forever... So while I'm at it, might as well 'enjoy' the difference..?

Also I think U can note the following, it maybe helpful to U.
1) your diet - should include my greens & fruits than meat. avoid deep fried stuff might help.
2) your hygiene - don't touch your face with hands, change your pillow case regularly, wash your make up sponge regularly, use makeup that doesn't clog your skin, most importantly, MUST remove your makeup thoroughly each day.
3)good skin care regime - the usual cleansing, tonning plus moisturising, mabbe can top off with hydrating mask etc.
4) take lots of water, mabbe U can try to juice your fruits and add in lots of veg to get the max vitamins

what many people take here... models, actors, etc.. is an oral drug called isotretinoin.. which cotains vitamin A. They take it for about 4~6 months. It is believed that isotretinoin works primarily by reducing the secretion of oils from the glands, however some studies suggest that it affect other acne-related factors as well. Isotretinoin has been shown to be very effective in treating severe acne and can either improve or clear well over 80% of patients.
Be careful though, your doctor probably won't let you on it before you try milder creams and medicines, 25% of people suffer side-effects of this drug: dry skin, nose bleeds, headaches. But they can all be cured by creams, etc. Like I said, 80% you'll get rid of your acne for good.
Also if you are going to pop them, there is a way to do it. Basiaclly only get the ones with "heads" that infected white stuff on the top. Make sure you don't dig your nails into your skin, as this can scar. I'm assuming you just have facial acne? Maybe this will pass after you've gone through puberty (I'm guessing your age here, sorry), but you should consult members of your family and ask them if they still suffer from acne.
My best advice is to go and see your GP, and then furtherly more, go and see a deratologist (sp), which should (does in this country anyway), prescribe you the most suitable oral medicine and cream for free.
