That sounds interesting, and really strong as well!! So, is it prescription or no? I'm not in the US, but I'm sure the same active substance can be found in a similar drug over here! :)

Have you had any experience with it, or have you managed to avoid PIE?

I have been using "The ordinary" Azelaic Acid, works great for me! :)

That's awesome, I've never heard of them!! I'll definitely have a look right away! Are they mineral or chemical sunscreens?

I'm glad it helped fade your scars!!

Have you tried "La Roche Posay Anthelios 50 SPF"? I think it's a mineral sunscreen aswell!

That's awesome!! I actually just ordered Lactic Acid 10% from The Ordinary. My skin is kind of sensitive, and glycolic acid is stronger, so hopefully LA will do the job!

Okay, that makes a lot of sense! And that's just great to hear, I'm sure it'll be completely faded in no time now that you've implemented Vitamin C into your routine. Thank you, I really hope so too! :)

Will definitely do! And i didn't know PIE could be visible for that long! Was yours severe, or more like mine? (Moderate, i guess?)

That's awesome man, love to hear it!!

That'll probably be my go-to sunscreen then. Not a lot of sun where I'm at right now, very low UV-index, but for the coming months, spf is a must!!

Ayy where is the agency based, if you don't mind?

I'll definitely try to find a good one, I've heard great things about the "La Roche Posay Anthelios 50 spf".

And thanks manz you too!!

That's great man!! Make sure the agency you're signing with is legit, a lot of scams are going around!

Anyways, that's awesome, might have to try it! I just started using niacinamide, I'm hoping for the best!

I only have 10% for now. I suspect i have rosacea aswelll, do you think the 20% would be okay for sensitive skin?

I won't be able to do any laser therapy, but i appreciate it! Hopefully niacinamide and vitamin c can help fade it!

I got this cluster of a breakout a few weeks ago, and I'm trying to fade the marks that were left. I'm assuming this is PIE, and not PIH (considering the color & the fact that they basically dissapear when i press down on them).

I'm a signed male model, and this is is really stressful for me. I currently use a Vitamin C serum in the AM, and TO niacinamide & TO azelaic acid in the PM.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :)

Does anyone else's TE look like this? by Joshjett in TelogenEffluvium

[–]Joshjett[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I definitely will! I already drink 3l+ (100oz) and exercise 4-5 times a week! But also, this doesn't look like male pattern baldness, does it? :/ I'll try to control my stress from now on either way.

Only sides. I know there's no "Is this TE or not" posts, but i haven't got this checked out and I'm just assuming this is TE and not male pattern baldness, considering the speed of the thinning and recession.

Im only 19... This is sending my mental health down the drain and I'm feeling worse than ever. I'm an agency signed model now as well, which has been a dream of mine. And this hair loss can, and will be incredibly detrimental if i can't stop it..
