What is Polysporin? |

Polysporin is an antibacterial cream. Yup good call. Everytime my pimple pops i dab Polysporin on top and leave it for a few hours, then dab drying lotion. Polysporin really helps reduce scarring. |

This past week I've gone alittle crazy and my chin is a mess because I've messed with things and continued to mess with things ... so I have some scabs. <hanging my head in shame> Would putting Polysporin on the scab areas help now that they are slowly drying up? Or is it only effective when something has just happened and it's "open"? |

Polysporin is for open wound (keeps bacteria away and seals moisture).
For fresh scabs can I suggest Contractubex? I've just tried it and my scab is fading! (fresh pimple scab). Do a google search on it it's inexpensive. |

I use my PSF O2 Serum. It really seems to speed healing. |

Thanks! I'll check that out ... although if I would just stop messing with things I wouldn't have to look for products to help me heal. |

Ditto! We should stop picking (I've promised myself this is my last "pick"...) |

about the psf o2 serum.. how quickly do you see the results? over night, within 2-3 days? |

Depends how bad the skin problem is, with me. If I just have redness, skin irritation, etc, then I see results in a just a few hours after I use the PSF O2 serum. But, if it's a major scab on my face that I picked, it's definitely a few days before it's healed. (That beng said, I definitely feel like it would take twice as long to heal if I weren't using the O2 serum...) |
