It has been two months, and I continue to improve at a reasonable pace. I started with the Exfol Serum and CP Serum and very quickly jumped to the LacSal cream and Super CP Serum which I have been using ever since. I also apply the EmuOil shortly after the copper peptides. I use my sample of the Super Cop on occassion, but not very often, for I like the serums better than the creams. Also, I have done a 30% glycolic peel four times.

I know how misleading pictures can be, but I took these in the same place as before. I think you can see the positive difference thus far after just two months.

BEFORE followed by the AFTER

Looking good, bro. Keep it up!!

Damn man, looking good!

Excellent! There's a big improvement from the before pictures!

Dear yeshua_seven:

Thanks for posting your pictures! You are doing very well...And we especially appreciated your comment that for 2 months you have improved "at a reasonable pace". It's good that you have reasonable expectations.

And for two months of use you are already seeing visible results. Please keep us all posted.

Since you've been using the LacSal Cream - We'd really like to get your feedback on the serum counterpart Free LacSal Serum.

Best Wishes for Continued Success,
-Skin Bio Team

I figure I would like the serum better than the cream, but I haven't had the chance to try it yet. I will be placing another order soon though...within a few weeks.

We'll see where I'm at in another 2 months...or one month if I notice any significant improvement by then.

Yeshua, that's great! Thanks for sharing this with us.

You can really see an improvement. The redness and swelling has definitely lessened.

Can you keep posting for us and keep us updated even if the improvements are only tiny?

Also I'd like to ask - are you seeing any change in your pore size and scarred pores and what pH is your glycolic? Do you have any old scarring that you've noticed a change in? Oh and how old are you?

Thanks in advance.

I don't really know all the terminology or what not of everything such as pore size, although I kind of understand it since it sounds pretty straight forward.

The glycolic is 2.1 pH according to the bottle.

I am 23 years old, and for some reason I don't remember what my scar situation looked like at 20, I just remember pimples all the time, and after I got rid of most of the pimples, I noticed all the marks left behind. My scars are very young therefore.

I plan on posting pictures again near the end of March (2 months from my last post of pictures).

Also, I have added a dermaroller in my routine recently.

Hi Yeshua_seven

I wasn't expecting you to be technical or anything (I don't know all the terminology either ) I was asking because I've been trying to get rid of some pitted scarring/scarred pores for a while and I was hoping to get some tips from you - I just wondered if you'd noticed an improvement in the look of your pores because that's obviously what I'm most interested in.

lol But your skin is alot younger than mine. Some of my scarring is almost as old as you are!

I'm really glad you're getting such good results from these products. It's heartening when people post their successes. These are the stories we all like to read.

Alright, it has been about two months again.

In the morning I put on the LacSal and in the evening I put on the Super CP Serum, in general. I also got a dermaroller which I have been using morning and evening many nights. Usually I put on some LacSal cream, then use the dermaroller, then put on more LacSal cream. In evening I put on the CP's, then use the dermaroller, and then put on more CP's. I used mostly the CP Serum, but also at times I used the two samples I got of the Super COP and Super COP 2X.

On a weekly basis I continue to use the glycolic acid at 50%. I'm thinking about moving up to 60% later and possibly even jump straight to 70% but I'm not sure because they said 70% is for body moreso than the face, although it does appear it can be used on the face as well if used carefully.

Also, I'm trying to decide if I should slow down on the acid and use it once a month. I've done 5 peels at 30% and 8 peels at 50%. That is 13 peels (13 weeks) total.

I'm also trying to decide if I should lay back on the dermaroller for a week or two in case the using of it twice a day is not helping or not.

I also use the Emu Oil. I put on sunscreen before leaving for work because platinum skin care says to in their instructions. I hope that doesn't cancel or weaken the effects of the other products.

Anyays, here are my new pics.

Let me know what you think. I see my face everyday, so it hard to see changes. Looking at the before and after pics though, it appears the scars are continuing to get a little lighter, but I'm not sure if that is just the lighting differences in the pics.

I can definitely see a difference! Look good for just a few months.

My 20-year-old son has acne scarring and still has active acne on his face and back. I would like to get him started on these products to see if it will help him. He's been so depressed about it for years and nothing seems to help.

Keep up the good work yeshua!

Please try Lecithin for your sons acne. I use 4800 mgs a day. You can buy this very cheaply at walgreen,walmart etc in the vitamin isle.
I an 41 years old and have had acne since I was 12 years old. I tried everything and I mean EVERYTHING!!! I started researching different things and for the first time in my life I am clear with the exception of a pimple here or there.
My acne was hereditary, my dad and grandfather both had bad cases of it with tons of scarring.
I have been using Lecithin for 8 months now and it is a miracle, it helps the liver emulsify(sp?) fats. I hope you will try this, as I know how acne can make you feel terrible about yourself. Let me know...

Thank you polka dot! I will try that. He has tried everything short of Accutane (just didn't want to go that route) and is now using Nature's Cure for Men with some results but not enough to really make it better. I also had severe acne for most of my life and have had great results with Proactiv, but it did nothing for him.

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it.

Polkadot:

Do you mean "soya lecithin"? I noticed my parents take that and was wondering if it is the same as lecithin? Also, have you tried flaxseed oil or borage oil that I have seen recommended on here before? Right now my skin is dry and I have had oily/combo skin my entire life. I just worry that taking these may 'oils' will be too much when my skin goes back to its normal oily self.

People don't like to take pills because they're afraid of addiction and side effects.

I think the moral of this thread is that as soon one acne up, better to attack it immediately than let it propogate and get worse.

Lorrine,
Yes Lecithin and soya Lecithin are the same thing.
Yes also I have tried borage, flax seed and fish oils, none really did much for my acne. I do take fish oil daily for other heath benefits.
If anything my face less oily and more normal, but still can get shiney, but not to extremes.
Please try the Lecithin its natural and cheap and I think our we ( people with REAL acne) must have some kind of defiency. Anyway take it a while and see if it helps and let me know. I am so curious to see if my theories are right.

Polkadot:

No, I certainly think you are on to something. I just googled "lecithin for acne" and came back with several articles. Here is just one: Ezine Articles

It's been two months since my last update, so here I am again. My face continues to get better, slowly but surely.

I'm also working on my two moles on my face which appear to be going away slowly, part by part. I'm using glycolic acid at 70%. I apply it with a q-tip and leave it on for about six minutes, although one time so far I left it on for at least 15 minutes. Today I realized that it seems to help a lot by putting on some shaving cream and shaving over the moles. I believe they will be completely gone in less than a month. I apply the glycolic acid every day or so for maybe close to a week. Last night I used it on my face twice in one day. I wouldn't recommend that for everybody, but it works for me. The acid tears my skin up a little so it takes some time to heal, but that is no problem.

Anyways, here are the updated pictures of my face. I take the pictures in the same location, but the angle of my face in relation to the light may change, so it effects the outcome of the pictures a little.

Very good - Thanks for posting!

Best Wishes,
-Skin Bio Team

The lighting must be a little different on these from previous pictures. These pictures make it look a little better than it really was.
