Here's the deal. I have good skin. Every 4 or 5 months or so, I'll go in for a deep pore facial. Serious extractions, none of the frou frou facial massages. Just 2 hours of painful pinching.
That said, the last time I went, my regular esthetician was out sick. In her place was newbie. She did a good job of extracting stuff but problem is her technique left a lot of marks. It's been 3 months and the marks on the upper lip are still there. I look like I have a mustache.
Any body have any great recommendations for skin lighteners or spot removers? I use Tazorac at night and altho that helps w/ acne prevention, it doesn't do much for the spots.
Help a girl out.... |

Are these just bruises from the pinching? If so, your skin should be able to heal itself in time. |

if there is brusing..or or scarring..from the extraction process than tamanu oil may help..it is especially effective with an essential oil call heliochrysum...both can be purchased from anandaapothecary.com. |
