Hi to all.......I have been visiting this sight and really enjoy everyone's advice. I am a picker..............I try but I have NO self control when it come to pimples I don't have the scar but I do have the skin discoloration after words. Can anyone advise some products to make the ugly spots disappear!!
Thanks!

Vit C serum will help to fade these and even out your skin tone. There are *tons* of posts on Vit C serums...if you do a search you will have hours of reading. As well, maybe a cleanser with glycolic acid would speed up the process and stop the pimples from forming in the first place. Prevention is the best way, IMO. I have been using MD Formulations for a while now and really like it! ) |

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I would also suggest you get some skin bio super copx2 cream. You can buy samples from dianayvonne for a few $ (you only need the tiniest amount). Use on the scab after you have picked, and it helps it heal more quickly as well as reducing scarring. Don't use at the same time as the C vit though, as it stops the C working. |

Azelaic acid (Azelex, Finacea, Skinoren)is also very good at removing this PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation). Applying neosporin after picking can also help the spot heal quickly with no infection so less chance of scarring/dark marks. |

what about Dr. H rejuvenating mask? I hear it's great, just ordered some online...it's supposed to diminish the look of acne scars |
