hello ...
do u guys have any idea how to SMOOTHEN ur face? my face has got scars (the black ones..where pimples are poked and takes hell of a time to heal)...and BIG HOLE SCARS (these are the ones..where i used to poked for de big pimples...and too much of blood lost..and when it recovers..it turn to holes..so my mask's lotion actually sink in)...
i've asked beautician on removing SCARs...and they said, we can do pore refining facial & very basic skin peeling...bcoz de black colour on the skin is dead skin...
on BIG HOLE SCARs...these wud require surgery...
do u guys have any ideas how to make de skin from these to really SMOOTH skin? no bumps..no holes..no dead skins... no clogged pores ? |

Hi Sillyblurangel,
Sorry im not here to help, but i just want to share as i got the same problem as you!! I got small depressed holes on my cheeks from acne scarring and got extremely hugh pores!
I have done microderm and IPL, which did improve my skin, but the scars are still visible !! Can anyone help us? |

I'm no expert but I think a little research in Copper Peptides might be what you're both looking for.
Here's a few sites, granted they sell product too, but very informative.
They sell Dr. Pickarts CP's - I understand he was the one who discovered this, I think. Not a big fan of his - he has a major G*D complex thing that annoys me to no end.

This is where I buy my ready made CP products. I've learned to duplicate most of them, so don't order so often anymore. Good product, fast shipping - is my experiance.

I know alot of forum members here & other similar forums purchase from here.

Wow!
what great info Candy.
I had a mole removed on my face that has left a deep creator on my cheek, i used vitamin e on it.
I had it removed last December.
Would these products be helpful to flatten the skin or is there something else?
Any ideas? |

between glycolic acid peels, epidermx microderm and silkia camellia oil, my skin has a 100% turnaround in smoothness, no more bumps and clogged pores, less oily, very few brownish black marks left, depressed acne scars are about 90% plumped up. I still have some breakouts now and then, but far less severe than it used to be ... i even got compliements i had great skin. |

Depending on how much money you have to spend and how many deeper scars you have, you could get fillers injected in the worst ones. It'll help with the indentation but not the discoloration. It also won't last forever, but you could have them temporarily filled while you wait for the other products to work. |

I used to have large pores due to blackheads. Tried using glycolic and salicylic peels, but there was minimal improvement.
Then I started going for regular facials and my pores have visibly reduced in size. |

I agree with Candy. Copper peptides have helped my scars greatly! They're hardly noticeable! I also use Isomers Matrixyl 3000 and that seems to help too! |

AHA products should be able to help a little |

Being really thorough with your cleansing should help to make a difference to the size of your pores. I've been using Shiseido Cleansing Oil and it's helped a lot with it. Also using a BHA and exfolaiting regulary.
I'm really interested in trying some sort of copper peptide product too after the reviews to help with my scars. |
