Hi Vani! Actually my situation sounds very similar to yours--- I had a bad bout of acne and my face was covered in scars, so much that I hated leaving the house. I honestly didn't think anything could help me because my skin is soooo fair and so fragile that scarring usually takes months if not years to go away. However, I happened to meet a very nice lady named Amy, who is the founder of a company called "Naturderm" (www.greatnewskin.com). She told me that many of her clients had come to her with the same problem--- a face full of scars--- and her products had helped them, so she felt confident that they could help me too. I have to admit I was a little skeptical since my skin was SO badly damaged, but I started using the Naturderm products. I started using the Epidermx II (a microderm scrub) once a day, Chrysalyx (a skin-rejuvenating lotion) twice a day, and Triple Lavender Face Foam (a mild face wash with fruit acids) once a day. I was hoping I'd start to see results within a few months, so you can imagine my surprise when I started seeing results within a WEEK! I'm serious! After about a month I added in Naturdermx (a peptide-based cream) once a day too. Now, it's been a little less than 2 months since I started using the Naturderm products, and my scars have VANISHED! I only have one small indented scar left from a particularly horrible breakout, but even that is shrinking so I feel really good about it. It used to be that even with a face full of makeup my bright red scars showed through. Now I can go out without makeup if I want to, though I still usually dust a light layer of mineral makeup on because I love the airbrushed look it gives me.
The Naturderm products are just a little expensive, so I would definitely recommend ordering the trial pack that contains epidermxII and chrysalyx first, to try them out. The trial pack is a two week supply--- what I did when I tried it is I kept the packet of Chrysalyx in a ziplock bag, and I used a q-tip to get product out of the packet so I could stretch it out for the whole 2 weeks. Good luck, and HTH! |
