Posted: Nov 13, 2005 11:30 AM Reply I am looking for a product or treatment that I can use to erase the effects of teenage acne. My skin has improved a lot since then, but I still have some darker marks and pitting in my skin on the cheeks and jawline. I also, have large pores in these areas that I want to reduce. Anyone know of a good peel or other product that can help. drsaith Posts: 394 From: London UK Registered: 10/17/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks?

Posted: Nov 13, 2005 5:24 PM Reply Well, as far as minimizing the size of your pores, look for any moisturizer that is a "pore refiner." You'll find these at the local drugstore (i.e. Neutrogena, Clean & Clear, etc.), as well as higher-end brands like Kiehls. In regards to your acne scars, that's really only something a dermatologist can take care of. I have seen this kit at the drugstore lately. Perhaps you can check it out: http://tinyurl.com/9lox3 cutandsew Posts: 13 Registered: 9/6/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks? Posted: Nov 14, 2005 4:04 PM Reply Thanks for the advice.

Posted: Nov 14, 2005 4:19 PM Reply Take 50mg of zinc twice a day and you will notice a difference in a month or two. I wouldn't recommend doing microdermabrasion at home because that can actually make your skin worse. dustin4 Posts: 5 Registered: 10/19/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks? Posted: Nov 22, 2005 4:00 AM Reply I would get some Vitamin K cream and put it on twice daily. Microdermmight be good, but make sure you go to a notable place to get it done,and it may take more than one treatment. gerald187 Posts: 41 Registered: 3/30/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks?

Posted: Dec 29, 2005 11:34 PM Reply dont waste money on costly cosmetics!...there is no product which can get rid of the pitting caused by acne...even microdermabrasion...I called the customer service of La mer and they told me that their products at the least can decrease the appearence of wrinkles...the only way to get rid of those scars is by visiting a dermatologist. lex Posts: 41 Registered: 12/21/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks? Posted: Dec 30, 2005 12:03 AM Reply people are raving right now about olay microdermabrasion and peel, but i hear the neutrogena product isn't as good. probably the dermatologist is your best bet since you described the problem has been with you for some time now. creme de la mer is ridiculously overpriced, i wouldn't bother w/ that - spend it on a dermatologist instead. my recommendation is to try the olay, see if that has the effect you want, then go to the dermatologist if you're not satisfied. juzboi Posts: 31 Registered: 9/19/05 Re: How Do I Get Rid of Acne Marks? Posted: Jan 2, 2006 7:05 AM Reply Rose hip oil - I swear by it. It can help to remove scars (especially acne scars) and smooth out skin, whilst acting as a substitute for moisturiser at the same time. I'm currently using an Australian brand called Kosmea. I find that Kosmea products tend to be of a higher quality than others, and their rose hip oil is thicker and more concentrated than other's that I've tried. However, I don't know about distribution outside Australia...

Col. Jeffrey Bady, USA Special to American Forces Press Service WASHINGTON, June 3, 2003 - "Supporting Our Troops in Afghanistan" has developed into more than a service-learning project for a group of middle-schoolers in Maryland. Students at Westland Middle School in Bethesda, Md., started off with the theme and a project to create care packages for U.S. service members in Afghanistan. But it grew from there: They linked up with real-world troops to give added realism to their project. School principal Ursula Hermann suggested having service members talk to the students about their experiences while serving in Afghanistan. Someone contacted the 249th Engineer Battalion from Fort Belvoir, Va., a unit that has recently returned from Afghanistan. Maj. Steven Cade, executive officer, expressed an interest in taking part in the students' learning process. On May 22, 2003, Cade brought not only a multimedia presentation, but also four unit members with him: Chief Warrant Officer Jason Carlo, Sgt. 1st Class Kevin McCrea, Staff Sgt. Nicholas Mapp and Spc. Martin Brown. Together, they briefed students on the culture, customs and uniqueness of Afghanistan. Then the soldiers displayed some equipment they used while in Afghanistan. School staff members said the students were excited about meeting soldiers with real life experiences. Students' questions were mostly about the climate, Afghan children's activities and the lifestyle of the Afghan people. After the presentation, the students constructed the care packages, containing baby wipes, disposable razors and cameras, candy, computer game software, and other personal items. The 249th Engineer Battalion provides utility power wherever needed around the globe. They have deployed to the Middle East, Asia, Africa and South America. They also support the Federal Emergency Management Agency during disaster relief efforts. The unit has the capability to supply enough power for a small city. (Lt. Col.

He is assigned to the 81st Regional Support Command, Birmingham, Ala.) Staff Sgt.

Botox® and Dysport® are

Botulinum toxin, Botox™, Dysport™. DermNet NZ DermNet NZ Ad Authoritative facts about the skin from the New Zealand Dermatological Society Incorporated . Home For patients For doctors Find a dermatologist About Store Contact Site map Search: Home | Procedures Botulinum toxin Botulinum toxin is a very successful medical treatment for facial lines and wrinkles. How does it work? Botox® and Dysport® are different forms of purified botulinum toxin A, and are produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum , the cause of a dangerous disease called botulism. Botulinum toxin is a neuromuscular blocking agent, which means it causes paralysis of the injected muscle by preventing the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve terminals. Without its nerve supply, the muscle fibre withers away. The muscle strengthens again as the nerves regenerate. Botulinum toxin reduces sweating by blocking the sympathetic nerve fibres that control sweat glands. What can botulinum toxin be used for? Botulinum toxin treatment was originally introduced to treat muscle spasms, including blepharospasm (spasms of the eyelids), strabismus (squint), cervical dystonia (torticollis of the neck) and spasticity due to cerebral palsy or other muscular diseases. In patients treated for facial spasms it was noted that facial wrinkling decreased over the treated muscle. This experience lead to the development of botulinum toxin for the treatment of dynamic facial wrinkles . People often dislike their central scowl lines (called glabellar lines), which are caused by the corrugator and procerus muscles contracting when concentrating, squinting, or frowning. Botulinum toxin injections into these muscles weaken them and successfully reduce the prominence of the line. Subject relaxed prior to botulinum toxin injections Subject frowning prior to botulinum toxin injectons Subject relaxed after botulinum toxin injections Subject attempting to frown after botulinum toxin injections Botulinum toxin can also be used to lessen crows' feet, bunny lines, marionette lines and smoker's lines. The treatment can be combined with implantations such as collagen or hyaluronic acid to further improve the appearance. It can also be used to shape the eyebrows into an arch or flare and to correct facial asymmetry. Botulinum toxin is very successful at reducing excessive localised sweating ( hyperhidrosis ), especially in the armpits. Multiple superficial injections are given in a grid-like pattern over the affected area. It may also prove helpful to reduce flares in those with pompholyx (a form of hand dermatitis ) or Hailey-Hailey disease, when these are provoked by sweating. How is botulinum toxin administered? Tiny quantities of the toxin are injected directly into the affected muscles. It takes three to five small injections between the eyebrows to treat the frown line. The injection is almost painless. The treated muscles weaken over the following week or so. Most people do not notice anything. They simply become aware that they are no longer able to contract the frown muscles. They can still lift their eyebrows normally and blink without problems. You can frown as often as you like in the first day or so, but the treated areas should not be touched. Don't have a facial massage! To reduce sweating, tiny injections are placed in the affected area at about 1cm intervals; this can be quite painful especially if the hands are injected, so local anaesthetic may be required. The effect of botulinum toxin starts wearing off within a few weeks but retreatment is not usually needed for three to six months. It can be repeated as required. Many people find after three or four treatments to glabellar lines that they don't need another one for a long time; the muscle has markedly weakened or they have broken the bad habit that led to the frowning or squinting originally. Side effects and risks Some people have a slight headache after treatment for several hours; it is safe to take paracetamol to relieve this. Very long lasting headaches have rarely been reported. A bruise at the site of injection is possible. Injection into the palms can cause muscle weakness and result in temporary clumsiness. The most common significant complication, which is rare, is " ptosis ". This is a drooping of the eyelid caused by the botulinum toxin tracking into the eyelid muscle. It generally lasts just a few days, but more prolonged weakness is possible. Let your doctor know if this bothers you; iopidine or aproclonidine eye drops can be prescribed to lessen this effect. Bruise Droopy eyelid Contraindications Botulinum toxin injections should not be used in pregnancy or when breast feeding. It is also inadvisable for those with certain neurological conditions such as motor neurone disease or myasthenia gravis. Caution is necessary for patients on the following medications: Aminoglycoside antibiotics (may increase effect of botulinum toxin). Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine (may reduce effect). Blood thining agents eg. warfarin or aspirin (may result in bruising). Occasionally the injection fails to result in the desired muscle weakness. The treatment can be repeated, but to reduce the chance of the development of neutralising antibodies, it is recommended that the treatment is not given again for two months.
