Cystic Acne Scarring
Hey guys 🥰,
I suffered from some awful skin condition and cystic acne in my teens and early 20's. It was awful and was worst in the centre of both my cheeks 😪. It got so bad I was put on a course of Roaccutane when I was 23 which was tough but I hardly ever get spots anymore and no cysts at all!
Unfortunately, a lot of damage was already done to my skin 😔 now I have undeniable scarring in the centre of both my cheeks, rolling scars and hyperpigmentation. This has caused so many self-esteem issues and is what got me so obsessed with skincare 3 years ago 🤩.
I was wondering if anyone has dealt with anything similar and which products you have found work best for improving the appearance of cystic acne scarring.
There has been some improvement in the scarring over the time I've been so obsessed with skincare, but I've used that many different products over the years it would be impossible to pinpoint which products worked the best 🤷♀️
Thank you to anybody who has any advice 🙏.
PS. I don't have any photos to share yet but I will try and get some put up when I can (It has taken me almost 9 years to get to the point of feeling OK with sharing pictures of my true skin, and around the same to be able to go outside without full coverage foundation on (for a long time I couldn't even take the bins out without a full face of makeup on 💄🤦♀️.)) It was very stressful and tiring!
Thanks guys,
Heather 😘
