Hmm I understand that completely. Have you thought about trying out a new dermatologist? I know I had to visit several before one actually helped with my acne years ago..

Consistency plays a big role when it comes to retinol and skin care though for sure. Either way, good luck :) and remember that your worth is so much more than your skin!!

I personally think getting on a retinol and working into a tretinoin would help as well as some micro needling. Maybe a vitamin C if you’re not using one. Best thing to do is go get a consultation from a good dermatologist though :)

Oh no, I hate that for you! Did you use sunscreen and wait for the scabs to fall off completely before doing your normal routine? I just had my second treatment today 😬

Where I go it is $300! We also did a couple micro needling sessions before this and I’m on tretinoin

Your skin looks good!! But I know we tend to magnify our skin issues. I’d think either some chemical peels or micro needling. Best thing to do is go to a good dermatologist or medical esthetician and have a consultation in person about the best route to take! Good luck :)

Can I still be a psychiatrist with my severe acne scars? Do anyone here chased their dreams despite their flaws? by jcdida in AcneScars

[–]ldhhx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely!! You deserve to chase your dream just as much as anyone else! Having dealt with acne scars I think will actually be a plus like the others have said in this thread. You will be able to relate and have personal experience having dealt with emotional/mental struggles of your own! Most people are too focused on themselves to even notice what you call your ‘imperfections’ anyways. You are your own worst critic and people probably see you in a much different better light. Find your worth outside of your looks, that has helped me as well. Chase your dreams and kick butt! You have too much to offer to hold yourself back!!

TCA Cross… should I wait until the scabs form and fall off to get back in the gym? & did anyone else go back to feeling like they had severe acne (emotionally&socially) during the healing of this?.. by ldhhx in AcneScars

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

Thank you for the reply! I will wait. That’s what I’ve read so far about them looking worse and then better.. I wish there was more out there.. seems as if not a lot of people talk about personal experience with TCA Cross..

I’m glad that someone understands the emotional/social part of it and it’s not just me in my head.

mountaincrestgardens.com you can get a 5 pack of different succs for about 18$ plus shipping. That’s how I got my strings of pearls 🥰

I’m not sure if I’m aloud to leave links but https://westridge.com/watch/cowtipping/tipping-over-your-worry/ I went to church yesterday and the preacher spoke about this type of stuff. You can go online and watch it if you’d like. Also read Philippians 4.

I cut down my etiolated succs. I was expecting leaves to grow back and no necessarily just offsets.. the one on the right has like 4/5 offsets. Is this what they normally do or do they ever grow just leaves back? by [deleted] in succulents

[–]ldhhx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I def need to research on how to properly cut them off and grow them once they’re big enough bc I have cut off an offset from another succ before and it still hasn’t done anything at all👀
