benefits of microdermabrasion for acne scars treatment?

I have oily skin and acne problem. The problem is that scars are not removed completely. Some are getting light but not removed completely. I recently heard about microdermabrasion for acne scars from one of my friends. Does it really work? I am 23 now. Does it have any side effects?

Microdermabrasion definitely works but not at a deeper level . Repeated sessions are needed . For best results combination therapy of microneedling , co2 fractional and microdermabrasion are advisable

microdermabrasion is completely safe for your age. depth of acne scars matters a lot before starting any treatment. ultimate result depends on it. so we need to asses the depth to which we need to work for improving the scars.  so it would be better if u can share your picture or come for physical consultation

If you have oily skin and acne problem, sometimes if acne is severe they might burst or get infected or if you pick your acne too much they might result into scars. As per Dermatologist there are 5 types of scars which are commonly encountered. 
1. Ice Picks Scars: Very small in surface but deep and narrow below. 
2. Roll-Over Scars: Wide but borders are difficult to appreciate 
3. Box-car Scars: wide and borders can be easily appreciated. 
4. Open pores like Scars: Small Ice Pick Scars 
5. Hyper-trophic Scars: 
so the treatment for the scars depends upon the type of scars. Commonly treatment which are effective are TCA cross, subsition treatment, microneedling, microneedling radiofrequency, PRP treatment, CO2 Laser, RBM Glass laser and even dermal fillers. 
As you are 23 and you are asking about microdermabrasion, it removes superficial skin layers and it is effective only for superficial scars which are not very deep. This might require you multiple sessions like 8-10 sessions for it to work. Instead of Microdermabrasion you can go for microneedling, microneedling radiofrequency which will require less number of sessions and on top of it you can add PRP to it.

Can you wear acrylics nails for a tonsillectomy

Female | 15

Acrylic nails aren't recomme­nded before tonsille­ctomy surgery. Those fake nails could harbor ge­rms, making hand hygiene tricky. During tonsillectomy, doctors re­move tonsils, often due to infe­ctions or breathing issues. Clean hands pre­vent surgical site infections, so natural nails are only for this proce­dure. Wait until you've recove­red fully before ge­tting acrylics again.

Iam 36 years old I have oily skin with open pores I need some moisturizer for.my skin to.look fresh kindly suggest

Female | 36

You need a non-comedogenic moisturiser which doesn’t cause any breakout or add to the oily state of the skin. Squalene, ceramide containing moisturisers which do not block the pores are recommended for oily skin. Please consult a dermatologist for thorough analysis of your skin to get a customised prescription suitable for your skin. Each one has a unique skin and has to use  best suitable products to maintain a healthy skin. Open pores can be reduced by using retinol containing creams at bedtime. If they are severe procedural treatments like laser toning, micro needling radio frequency can help.

Can I use benzoyl peroxide ointment for acne

Male | 13

Acne is a frequent skin problem that affects a person's skin by pimples and redness. Acne can be managed by using benzoyl peroxide ointment. It operates by eradicating bacteria from the skin. You might notice dryness or peeling at first, but it usually gets better with time. It is important to use only a small amount and keep away from sensitive parts.

I have some issues with my mouth. Suddenly small bumps inside my mouth appears

Female | 19

You may have­ little bumps in your mouth. They might be canke­r sores, common issues that often he­al themselves. Eating and spe­aking could feel uncomfortable due­ to the bumps. Reasons could include stre­ss, injury, or certain foods you've eate­n. Try rinsing your mouth with salt water or using over-the-counte­r gels to ease the­ pain from bumps. Avoid spicy, acidic foods that can irritate them further.

I have a great grown beard . And I don't use any grooming products on my beard so far . Just using a water to clean it . Couple week before when I trimmed my beard I had noticed patchy area on my left side of chin . And again today I have noticed it's spreading . Can you pls help me what ointment or suppliment I should use to get back my hair back

Male | 38

You are having alopecia areata a disease that causes bald spots on the beard. The situation is not life-threatening but it can be quite annoying. In this case, a topical steroid ointment application that diminishes the inflammation in those areas will be helpful. Furthermore, the use of biotin supplements is likely to help hair regrowth as well.
