Question 1

how can i remove acne scars fast. i have only five days for job interview. also suggest home remedy because my dermatologist failed to cure these scar?

Accepted Answer

Fillers: the best way to soften the appearance of acne scars and the fast method is the use of HA (hyaluronic acid) product and fillers. and I would do it ASAP since there might be small bruising that can resolve prior to your interview. If you get the treatment quickly.

Question 2

how effective are home microdermabrasion kits for acne pock marks?

Accepted Answer

Not great: Exfoliation is always good, but its not going to help that much with acne scarring. To really make a difference you need to look at laser resurfacing.

Question 3

how to cure acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Options: Acne scars can't be made to go away, but there are many options used by dermatologists to make them much less visible. A couple of rising hollywood stars have had their scars vanish recently, while others have chosen to keep them because it gives the face character. It's your choice, it's the 21st century, and you have a right to the skin that you want. Good luck.

Question 4

what can be done about acne scars at home?

Accepted Answer

See a dermatologist: You can't get rid of acne scars at home. Acne scars can be reduced with laser resurfacing or dermabrasion (not to be confused with microdermabrasion). And both of those procedures are done by dermatologist.

Question 5

what can i do at home to remove acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Do nothing: There is no home remedy to remove acne scars. In fact once you have a scar (no matter from what cause), you will have it for life. As plastic surgeons we are hiding and making them not as noticeable.  There is no way to remove the scar completely.

Question 6

how would you recommend i cure my acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Acne scars: Acne scars are tough to treat. There are many treatments that can be done to help including carbon dioxide and fractionated co2 lasers, dermabrasion, subcision of scars, and excision. A good skin care program can augment the results. But you need appropriate expectations since you can, at best, only achieve about a 50% improvement.

Question 7

what are some home remedies to remove acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Not a good idea.: Several options are available, but none can be done at home. The most effective treatment, in my opinion, is laser abrasion, which smoothes out the edges of the scars to make them less visible. Find a dermatologist who has done lots and lots of them; you don't want a beginner doing this procedure. And you don't want to try it at home.

Question 8

what is the best home remedies to lighten acne scars?

Accepted Answer

SPF & Hydroquinone: After the pimple goes away, it can leave a blemish called pih (post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.)  the inflammation causes the pigment cells to make too much pigment.  Sun exposure can make it worse, so a good physical uv sunblock will helps it from getting darker.  A skin lightener would be needed to fade the pigment.  Hydroquinone 4% is known to work, but requires a prescription.

Question 9

can you suggest some home remedies for fading acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Scar massage: Once the inflammation phase is over and you are just left with a pink scar, you can massage scars to make them fade away faster. You can also use topical silicone gel ( new gel).

Question 10

can you give me suggestions for my acne scars, home remedies?

Accepted Answer

Acne scars: I don't know of any home remedy but  carbon dioxide laser treatment is useful !
