Skin lightener?

So I was supposed to go to the dermatologist this month and see what he can give me for my acne scars. But she just switched jobs and her insurance doesn't kick in until August! I'm so upset. I have my senior pictures in June and was hoping to have them gone already! So I was wondering if anyone has any tips to help me out?





I use Vitamin E Oil on my face and it has help ALOT. I just want them gone though, I've had them for 7ish years. What about a skin bleach or lightening lotion? If you recommend a bleach will it make me like WHITE-er? If I try to tan, can I still get a tan on my face?





Anything to help me out. I'd really appriciate it.


Thanks!





Oh, if this helps I have combination skin. Oily in the summer, dry in the winter. T-zone oily. And I use Retin-A-Micro. Clean and Clear face wash and a Neutrogina moisturizer.
Skin lightener?
Yeah if you have oily skin----vitamin A is not a good choice....the dermatologist have the best scar removal options.....also try witch hazel ( or a astringent for oily skin) and cleanse the face twice a day.....(but please don't forget to tell the dermatologist that you use tanning beds, it will make a difference on what they prescribe). Good Luck, and congrats on your graduation.

You're looking for a "fading cream" like porcelana. It's what Blacks use to get lighter. It's not healthy to use. If you go out in the sun with it you can get skin maladies or cancer. Just use makeup instead.
Reply:Skin lightners WILL NOT (!!) get rid of acne. Get rid of acne scars with somthing like mederma.
Reply:don't use lighteners they will damage your skin. get proactive it will help clear and prevent marks and treat scars on your face. another option is using pure cocobutter mixed with vitaminE it events out the skintone.
Reply:Try the cream called Black and White, it is in a purple and white tube like a toothpaste tube and it is only 3or 4 dollars, I HAD the same prob until i used it every night and in 3 to 4 months you will get your miracle.

Reply:I was actually looking for a skin lightener and had high hopes for a skin care line by Dr. (Patricia) Wexler (albeit $39 + tax), a dermatologist with a practice in new york has even had oprah as a patient! I got her skin brightener moisturizer which has a 30 spf (sun protection factor), however, while it wasn't too irritating in and of itself, the light scent perhaps brought on by some 'natural' ingredients since I didn't see 'fragrance' listed, may have been too much for my allergic nature to handle. Her skin lightener product has vitamin c along with something called mmpi and niacyl, however, it does Not have hydroquinone which is another reason why I tried her's. I was so disappointed though that I couldn't tolerate it, but perhaps you can try to see if it will help to even out the skin tone.





Her products are available at bath and body works stores, online and thru QVC (shopping station) www.qvc.com. I returned it to bath and bodyworks where I purchased it and just brought my receipt and got a cash refund.
Reply:1. You should be using a chemical free skin cleanser every day. By cleaning your skin, you can help eliminate new blemishes from forming. Cleaning your skin every day is the best thing you can do to achieve healthy, acne free skin.





2. Try to keep your hair and hands off of your face. Both your hair and hands contain dirt and oils that can clog your pores and let bacteria grow. While this is not a cure for acne, keeping your pores clear will be instrumental in clearing your acne.





3. Drink lots of water, and eat a healthy diet. While there are no clear connections with acne to a person鈥檚 diet, your skin is the largest organ on your body and keeping your body healthy will naturally keep your skin healthy. Drinking lots of water will keep your skin hydrated while also flushing away toxins.





4. Don鈥檛 pick at your acne! Picking at your acne causes an unnecessary transfer of oils that may cause deeper acne lesions that may lead to scarring. The best way is to get your acne under control using a natural acne treatment every morning and every night.
Reply:Be very careful with products that contain hydroquinone. It is a widely used skin lightener however is a potential carcinogen and is banned in many countries. Look instead for a product that contains Kojic acid, like Arbonne's eye repair cream
