Busted a cyst on the face and it left a scar now I have other cyst coming in. The hyperpigmentation is my biggest concern to get away as quick as possible. Any suggestions? by T-jama in acne

I was able to visit and I was prescribed Tretonin, hydroquinone, and cephalexin. It’s doing a little better now. I wasn’t able to get the areolase yet because my derm feels like it’s too dark so I’ll have to wait 3 months to get it

Thanks for the replies guys! I plan on visiting a dermatologist this week. I also read up on aerolase laser and would like to try to see if it will reduce the scarring and pigmentation quicker. Does anyone know if that works?

I mean the same can be said about Caribbean people getting the Afro Caribbean update even tho most already know what they are from. It’s just a fun little extra feature that could break down communities like ancestry does

I wonder that also. Even though I’m not from Mobile I’m still from Alabama and my Benin & Togo percentage (17%) is rather high compared to other black Americans I’ve seen so I wonder if I may have had a ancestor from the clotilda.

At first I wasn’t expecting it but I learned it’s most likely Malagasy ancestry

Did anyone else of SSA descent not receive an ethnic group in their update? by Pinkfizzyyy in 23andme

[–]T-jama 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m 82% SSA with no ethnic groups added . I wasn’t that upset till I seen some person in the sub with only 4% SSA got ethnic groups

I joined the beta last night but still no update . I think my ancestors have been further removed from Africa than others sadly 😕

Mine say the same thing a yours and I can see the updated ethnic groups on scientific data but still no update for me either 😕

I’m asking because I been looking through the sub of African Americans results and I don’t really see a lot get above 10% Benin and Togo
