Dermatologist shaved my face?!!!!!!?
I went to see a dermatologist for my acne, and she said my face was %26quot;a little fuzzy%26quot; so she shaved it!! She said it won%26#039;t grow back dark or thick but I%26#039;m not so sure? I%26#039;m freaked out|||It won%26#039;t grow back thicker but the ends will be blunt instead of fine, so they may feel different. It%26#039;s not that big of a deal though.|||it may not grow back thick but it will grow back, and it will look like stubble if you have dark hair! that%26#039;s ridiculous! the doctor should have recommended another hair removal method that lasts longer than shaving. I knew a girl who had peach fuzz on her face but it was very light blonde hair. she had painful electrolysis for years and I don%26#039;t think it did any good. if you%26#039;re self conscious about it you could have it waxed or threaded off. but now your doctor has gotten you into a cycle of shaving that area and now you have to pay for the upkeep. I would contact the doctor%26#039;s office immediately and ask what kind of ongoing compensation they can offer you due to this screw up. you%26#039;re going to have to have that hair removed year in and year out forever so the doctor better pay. if not then report him or her to the BBB and medical board and dept of health.

The cost at a dermatologist????
how much does it cost to just visit the dermatologist for a checkup?
what about prescription acne medication???how much does it cost you to get some???|||Acne is a medical condition. If you have medical insurance, check with your policy and/or doctor you plan on going to. The medication would also be covered by health insurance.|||The only dermatologist Ive ever been to was the one at the health center at my college. Since I%26#039;m a student there, I was offered services at about 15 dollars per session. |||I saw a dermatologist a few years back and he charged $100 per visit. I%26#039;m located in New York City, so maybe things might be more expensive here than elsewhere. But the medication is whats gonna cost you most. He prescribed me some acne medication and they cost over $100 and its very small too! You have to keep refilling them if you want to keep using it and I think thats what cost the most.

But I can assure you that they will NOT inject you with anything. The doctor will have to check out the area in order to prescribe you something though.

Good luck and I hope it works for you :)|||Most likely they%26#039;ll make you take your shirt off so they can see it and then prescribe you either a pill or a topical cream, probably both and then tell you to come back in a couple of months to see if it%26#039;s working.|||I%26#039;ve been to the dermatologist for my back and face, they prescribed me a pill and differn, I doubt if you%26#039;ll get a shot.

well you could just look up all the dermatologists in colorado , call up their offices and ask them if they are African American. Kind of a weird that your doctor has to be a specific race. Whats wrong with a doctor who is good in their chosen field, someone you feel comfortable with, listens to you and includes you in the treatment decision making?

Going to a Dermatologist...?
I don%26#039;t have really bad acne, it%26#039;s never big pimples. It%26#039;s just mostly LOTS of little ones and blackheads. I%26#039;ve tried many products though nothing works. My mom made an appointment with a dermatologist to help. (I%26#039;m only 14 by the way)
The dermatologist isn%26#039;t going to be giving me any pills (we agreed) so what else will she do? Also how long will it take to clear up my face?
Thank you!! :-D|||When I went to ther dermatologist, she looked at my face and examined my case and type of acne. She will then prescribe you a fast acting medication such as DUAC, Differin, ect. You will want to follow a strict routine with keeping your face clean at all times. This should clear up in about a month

Acne and dermatologist?
so i have moderate severe acne, and i went to the dermatologist, but the prescription has barely had an effect on me, he told me to come back 2 months later, but is it really worth, my ex girlfriend went to the same dermatologist and her acne is completely gone wtf? and it only took her a month for her skin to clear up
should i go back and give it one more chance?|||everyone%26#039;s acne is different, and thus everyone%26#039;s acne regimen should be somewhat different and tailored to the person, assuming that you have a good dermatologist.

Mole removal/ dermatologist?
I want to get my moles removed on my face...they are not that big but I still want to get them off for cosmetic reasons....How much would it cost if I have Kaiser Permanente insurance? And is there another way to get it removed? Like lotions.... or something like this
http://www.amazon.com/Dermatend-Mole-Skin-Removal-Small/dp/B0010AZ6Q2/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
And will this product create scars?|||I have removed about 10 moles from my fingers/hands successfully by myself and they have never come back. Although I am not sure that I can recommend my technique. However I am aware that there are home kits that do the same thing.
I used a can of freeze (you can get it at an electrical/electronic shop). It is usually used for freezing components like capacitors in electronic circuits to see if they go faulty under temperature changes. Note that these cans come with a warning not to use it on your body.
Get a straw that covers the mole and the mole only. Spray a shot of the freeze down the straw and directly onto the mole. The mole should turn white and frosty from the freeze. Do this a couple of times a day over say a week. Within 2 weeks or so your mole should disappear completely without leaving a scar.
Obviously the home kit that you can purchase from the doctors would be the best solution, but this works just the same and is probably a lot cheaper and lasts a lot longer should you have many moles to remove.
I do not recommend that you do this without a doctors advice.|||If you laser remove, and leave it alone it will not scar. Just dont mess around with it.

Now if it%26#039;s severe as in all over your body, painful, or completely covers your face to the point of where its always red they can prescribe you Accutane i believe it is.

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water %26amp; stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath %26amp; let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K %26amp; Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

My dermatologist & obgyn have different views on acne medications.....?
My obgyn said to go to my dermatologist when I called and said I was having pregnancy acne on my face, neck, shoulders %26amp; back.
My dermatologist prescribed the following: (yes I told her I was pregnant)
Brevoxyl creamy wash - does have benzoyl peroxide in it but my derm. said that it was a wash - put it on in the shower and rinse it off. b/c it was a wash that is rinsed off it wouldn%26#039;t be absorbed into the skin.
Evoclin foam (category b)
Finacea (category b)
My obgyn is basically saying that it%26#039;s my choice to take these but she%26#039;s not giving her blessing - or really telling me what else I could take instead.
Anyone take any of these during pregnancy?
Suggestions?|||the ob-gyn does not want the liability of telling you
things are ok then if there is a problem .............
I wouldn%26#039;t want a dermatologist to deliver my baby. I would go with the skin advice from the skin Dr.|||My personal thoughts is that you have a GREAT OB - an OB should have the health of mom and baby in mind. Just because they are category B does not mean that it is safe.
The AAP has stated that %26quot;no drug has been PROVEN safe for the unborn baby%26quot;.
Class B simply means that EITHER there aren%26#039;t adequate studies or that THOUGH there adverse reactions to animal studies, there have been no studies or no adverse reactions shown in humans. - IT DOESN%26#039;T MEAN IT IS SAFE
I believe that, like everything, you need to weigh the pros and cons. We live in a %26#039;dirty world%26#039; and cannot keep ourselves and our unborn babies from everything that is risky, but we need to do what we can to protect them and give them the best start possible. For that reason - use wisdom and discretion, weigh the pros and cons, and make an educated and informed decision regarding this for your own body and baby.
I PERSONALLY would not take this medication - I would simply %26#039;deal%26#039; with the acne for 9 months - it is only 9 months of my life. But then again, I never even took a Tylenol for a headache for my pregnancies.|||If it were me I would not use the meds from the dermatologist. Have you tried anything over the counter? I use Clinique and used it throughout my pregnancy. If you go to the Clinique counter at your mall they will help you find the right products for your skin type and none of them would harm your baby.
I know acne stinks, but for some of us it%26#039;s just a part of pregnancy...it won%26#039;t last forever...good luck!!|||i would go with the advice from the obgyn. yah the skin doctor would know more about ur skin, when ur not pregnant, but the obgyn would know more about the effects on the baby.

Freckles...dermatologist?
Should a person with moles and freckles get them checked out my a dermatologist? How often? What sparks concerns to see a doctor?|||Freckles are sexy, keep an eye on the moles. If they begin to itch or change colour, or shape, then you should get them looked at. Otherwise they should be right.|||Yes, you should definitely have them checked at least once a year. More often if you notice them changing in anyway (growing, becoming irritated, darkening in color). Some signs of abnormal %26#039;freckles%26#039; is anything very dark, nearly black in color, and things with abnormal borders, meaning not circular, but in odd shapes. However, even things that don%26#039;t match this description could be cause for concern, especially if they begin to grow, changes colors, etc. The safest thing you can do is schedule an appointment with a dermatologist and have a thorough check up, and let him/her recommend how frequently you should have check ups. Best of luck.|||Any change in color/size/darkness of the mole..not so sure about freckles. Although if you have freckles/sun spots/burn easily that highly increases your dangers to sun exposure on your moles. It would be very smart to get any moles checked out as soon as possible, schedule an appointment with a dermatologist, it is worth your time.|||Freckles are ok. Only worry about new moles particularly if they are rough and/or itchy. Doctors recommend that if you notice anything you are not sure about then they are happy to check it out and put your mind at rest.
PS I forgot to say that I find freckles extremely attractive (its why I%26#039;ve been married for 30 years) so don%26#039;t think about having them removed|||Some moles are cancerous, but it is rare. You can have moles removed and freckles can be removed as well thanks to breakthroughs in laser technology.|||if you are concerned get them checked first, then after monitor them and if they change in any way get them checked asap to make sure that they aren%26#039;t turning cancerous.|||Consult your doctor. Don%26#039;t get rid of them unless it%26#039;s for a medical reason. Trust me, I know.

My dermatologist told me I had eczema....?
...around my nose and under my bottom lip, but when i saw the definition of eczema it said people who have it experience dry, red, cracked, and itchy skin. My skin is very dry but its not THAT bad. The spots that she was talking about when she said I have eczema are extremely dry with little white bumps (I can sometimes even pluck out the little white insides with tweezers)....Is this another form of eczema or something? The dermatologist seemed pretty sure that it was eczema.|||it is eczema you can pricked the white stuff just dont...
it might get infected try using hydrocotison they gave me that.|||Hi Red Roses
Here is a herb remedy that will work.
1. Take 1-3 droppersful of Echinacea Plus Tincture (at herbdoc.com or another qualified site) to strengthen the immune system.
2. Rub Garlic oil ALL over the affected area (Garlic will kill anything if you use enough of it)
3. Give 1-3 glasses of Activated Charcoal Slurry per day (to absorb the toxins out of the blood)
4. Mix equal parts of Aloe Vera Gel, Slippery Elm Powder and Activated Charcoal Powder together (absorbs the toxins externally)
5. Apply a thin layer of this mixture over the AFFECTED area(s).
6. Continue this treatment, until the desired Results are achieved.
This is healing at it%26#039;s highest point.
Cause
Eczema is often called Dermatitis, and may be a symptom of an omega-3 fatty acid deficiency. Eczema can be due to allergies, allergies secondary to digestive disorders such as hydrochloric acid deficiency, rashes secondary to immune diseases, genetic metabolic disorders, and/or nutritional deficiencies, especially of niacin (vitamin B3) and B6, as well as other B vitamins.
To minimize your risk of developing eczema, avoid irritating substances, wear natural nonirritating materials, use soothing ointments, and check to see if dietary, nutritional, and/or and allergy-causing factors need to be considered.
Other ideas that will help:
Juice Therapy: The following juice combinations can help speed healing: black currant and red grapes; carrot, beet, spinach, cucumber, and parsley; and wheat grass juice.
Nutritional Supplementation: Vitamin A and GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), an omega-6 essential fatty acid found in high quantities in evening primrose oil, have both been shown to improve the symptoms of eczema. Vitamin E. Other useful supplements for preventing and reversing eczema include vitamin B complex, vitamin B6, vitamin E, magnesium, and zinc.
Topical Treatment: Apply evening primrose oil directly to cracked and sore areas of the skin. A topical paste made from ginkgo and licorice root extract has also been shown to improve eczema symptoms.

To dermatologist out there?
how can i treat my dandruff comes and go. i cant bare it|||Is it psoriasis, dermatitis, or just plain dandruff? Is on on exposed skin or just your hair?
The easiest answer without knowing your exact condition is this...
1. Use a coal tar shampoo on your scalp (Like T-Gel) or similar dandruff products which can be bought at Walmart...
2. Don%26#039;t use conditioner all the way down to the roots...(Makes it worse)
3. Getting some sunshine helps dandruff and psoriasis...May I recomend a local pool? The chlorine seems to help too...
If the problem still persists very badly or covers a large portion of your body then you should see a dermatologist so they can give you prescription treatments...|||First off I get that too It is cuz I am not drinking enough water. Dehydration will cause that. Try drinking the recommened amt of water daily with of course the use of a dandruff shampoo. I always know when I am running low on water every 2 months or so my scalp itches so bad and I have dandruff drink the water|||Dandruff is the fungal deposition.There is a shampoo with the medicine Ketokonazol (Antifungal) which is the complete solution to it.Apply it twice a week and you will definately get result, as it is trusted formula.

Dermatologist & armpit sweating ?
i sweat excessively under my armpits, no matter what the temperature. i know a lot of people have this problem. i%26#039;m going to the dermatologist today for other facial reasons, but would they be able to do anything about my sweating? since it%26#039;s like skin related, i%26#039;d assume that they%26#039;d be able to prescribe something for it.

Dermatologist question!?
iv been referred and would like to know what happens roughly because i have no idea! i have bad feet and am in the army!|||Hiiyaa :)
Your dermatologist will ask you about your problem and will examine your feet and tell you what kind of fugus/infection etc... you have. She/He will tell you what you can do to help it and will prescribe some cream or tablets for it. Or whatever you need.. They will probably give you a follow-up appointment to check that the cream is working and thats about it.
Good Luck and i hope your feet are better soon :D
Byee

Dermatologist......?
How much $ does it cost to go to a dermatologist........im not looking for an exact amount but a rough estimate is more liike it........its about consulting acne problems.........|||You%26#039;re not covered on insurance? I would first get a referral from your family doctor, and then set up an appointment with the dermatologist... ask the receptionist to quote you on what you want to have done. It depends on the dermatologist but I would think at least a couple hundred dollars. But you never know till you try, no point in speculating.|||Don%26#039;t go to them they are a rip off. A friend of mind put me on to this stuff called Nel%26#039;s Smoother skin and it cleared up my acne within day and now that%26#039;s all i use...but i went to one and they charged me 500 dollars and my skin looked the same. i went to this site...www.forrazorbumps.com. ordered me a jar and the cleanser and i%26#039;m straight now..no more acne. and when they come back i just use the cream. TRUST ME IT WORKS...DON%26#039;T GIVE THEM UR MONEY. spend 15 to 25 dollars and you%26#039;ll be good.|||if you have insureance not much $5 a vist when I was with NJTransit. With out market rate.

i am a freshman in high school and would really like to be a dermatologist when i am older. what would i need to do to become one? i know i have to go to college and med school but could you tell me a bit about the career and how long it takes to be able to practice?|||you can go to Monster.com. They have a career advice page. You can find out how much they make and what the job entails. Good luck!|||four years of uni
four years of med schol
2 -3 years of residency
a few more years to specialize in dermatology
in total, it will average to about twelve years. I depends on the school. It seems like a lot, but time goes by so fast, especially after highschool.
In highschool, take all the sciences and maths. but what%26#039;s more important is to refine your study habits, and find out what works for you.

Dermatologist Procedure??
What does spraying liquid nitrogen and using a certain light on skin actually do?|||As it is understood, liquid nitrogen freezing of some lesions of delicate skin, is quite safe and elegant in results, (even scars can be erased) if performed by a certified dermatologist.....the liquid nitrogen is applied directly over the lesion to be excised, and the depth is determined by the time the cotton swab impregnated with the nitrogen stays in the lesion....(seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the depth)
It is known that the tissue touched by the nitrogen freezes and dies, falling off without leaving a scar (if applied by physician)
Certain light?...could be laser beam, woods light, who knows?
Your doctor can tell you the specifics and we can comment after that....

Dermatologist/Lighter skin?
I want to lighten my skin 2-3 shades.. Is that possible? Can a dermatologist help me do it without operation? Is it expensive? This is exactly what I want to have done:
1.) Pimples
2.) Lighter skin
3.) Even skin tone|||I would use one of the Aveno products.
It really works.
On my face, around my mouth and chin is darker than my face.
Once I used Aveno, it worked like a charm, and my skin lightened. It also helps with pimples.
But if you want even better pimple blocker, use neutrogena facial wash grapefruit.
If you are not a regular person who washes their face every time you brush, i would use them in the shower. Thats what I do

Dermatologists!!! or people who have been to a dermatologist!!! HELP!!?
so i used to have acne and now i have scars,the pors on my nose r sooo cloged! my skin tone is way neven. and it some pleaces on my face i have lil bumps((like pinples but alot smaller)) i have tryed so many thing to make my skin better but i give up! im just gonna go see a dermatologist!! so here r my questions. please help! even if u cant answer ALL the questions. please answer what u can PLEASE!!
1)will a dermatologist be able to help with my problems?
2)do i just call and make a apoitment? and what do i say,cause im sure they probbly need to see my skin to know whats wrong right? i cant just explain it over the phone. so what do i say??
3)what r the names on the skin conditions i have??
4) how much do u think it would cost to fix my problems?
XOXOXOXO!!!
Becky|||1) Yes, a dermatologist will probably be able to help with your problems. They may not be able to make your skin perfect, but they can help you improve it.
2) That depends on the type of insurance you have. You need to check and see what your insurance company%26#039;s rules are for specialists. Generally speaking, if you have a PPO, you can just call the dermatologist and ask for an appointment. If you have an HMO, you have to go through your primary care provider (your usual doctor) and ask for a referral to a dermatologist. Be aware that most dermatologists are insanely busy and it may be weeks before your appointment.
3) I don%26#039;t know, but based on your description, I would tell them that you have acne, combination skin, and some kind of rash (the bumps that you described).
4) I have no idea - again, that depends on your insurance. Some insurance plans won%26#039;t cover prescriptions that are for completely cosmetic problems. Some will cover them, but only if your doctor fills out a special form declaring that the treatment is medically necessary. Without insurance coverage, dermatological treatment can get quite expensive. When you talk to the dermatologist, explain to them that cost is a factor.|||The doctor will help. You will need to make an appoinment. Do you have insurance to pay for it?|||Becky you should check out natural cures for acne and scaring.
The acne remedies youve tried never really heled did they? well try something they dont want you to know.
Coconut Oil or Neem Oil will clear Acne, And if you take a asprin and cut it with 50% purified water and use it as a paste on a bandaid and place over the scar it will break down the hard tissue. Here is where I got the info.

3/12/2007: SM from Ontario, Canada writes: %26quot;I%26#039;ve struggled with acne for about 10 years now, and I%26#039;ll admit I had some major doubts about the apple cider vinegar cure. I tried various medications, including two rounds of Accutane (a powerful antibiotic). The Accutane worked for about a year after I took it, but then things started going back to how they were. I was unbelievably frustrated. I couldn%26#039;t possibly imagine how ACV would work - something which seemed so simple. But it did. I%26#039;m still in shock from the amazing results. I%26#039;m using organic, unfiltered / unpasteurized ACV with %26quot;mother%26quot; (5% acetic acid). I take two tablespoons stirred into a medium-sized glass of water (you%26#039;ll get used to the taste), three times a day. After only a few days, I started seeing a difference. Blemishes stopped appearing almost entirely, and those that did appear were very small. Now, after about two weeks, I%26#039;ve stopped breaking out altogether. My pores have become much smaller, and my skin really does have a new glow to it. I%26#039;m still really shocked when I look in the mirror. The true cures for our ailments come from the earth.

ASPIRIN MASK -- PROMISING REMEDY!
4/2/2006: Corrine from Arlington, V A writes, %26quot;I read a blog on the internet about aspirin masks. I tried it and it is unbelievable! My skin looks and feels amazing after just one mask. If you can find aspirin powders, that works best, otherwise plain aspirin will do the trick as well. I emptied 2 aspirin powders in the palm of my hand with a little calamine lotion (just enough to make a creamy paste) and applied to my face in a circular motion and let dry (approx. 5-10 mins.) I then added a little water and and again massaged in a circular motion and then rinsed it all off. A great exfoliator and it worked BETTER than any store bought product I%26#039;ve ever bought! (Aspirin contains salicylic acid which is in a lot of acne products) It also immediately got rid of the redness my skin is prone to having--AMAZING! A MUST TRY.%26quot;|||The best thing to do now is peel your skin, will even out the skin tone, get rid of the lil bumps, remove the scars, smoothen the skin. Of course, no other better person to help you than a dermatologist. Just call and make an appointment, they have to see your skin. Just tell them what you wrote here. The cost depends on the derma professional fees and medications/treatments she%26#039;ll give you. But set aside a budget, it will cost you.

Yes, a dermatologist will be able to help you. Get a referral from a friend or someone you trust and make an appointment.
There are lots of good treatments for mild acne all the way to severe, cystic, scarring acne. The doctor will probably start you out with a topical medication that might make the acne worse at first, but stick with it. After using it for a while, you might want to consider a chemical peel or microdermabrasion. They are both great for getting rid of the clogged pores and uneven tone.
Best of luck!|||your problem is pretty minor. it%26#039;s nothing compared to what most people have. i would really like to save you a trip b/c a dermatoligist vist...just to have them talk to you can be about $150...... basicly when you go %26amp; tell the doctor whats been going on they%26#039;re gonna try %26amp; diagnose you. from what you tellin me.. there really is no diagnosis. you just have some minor acne %26amp; some sun spots. for ur face got to walmart %26amp; neutrogena oil free acne wash(orangy yellow color) it costs like 5 or 6 dollars but it works. use it twice aday when you wake up and before you go to bed. if you have the acne on your body, you can use this on your body to. you can also get an oil free moisturizer b/c your face will dry out. for your nose get biore nose strips. they%26#039;re also pretty pricey but again they work.
if you want to go to a dermatoligist go ahead, but if you don%26#039;t have really good insurance it%26#039;s gonna cost you an arm and a leg. i have 2 insurances %26amp; i stilll wound up w/ sum extreeme bills. bet then again it may depend on how high in demand your dermatoligist is.
if you go %26amp; get diagnosed w/ acne the virus( i have it it%26#039;s something you%26#039;re born w/) kinda like the stuf you see on the proactive comercials. ask 4 retin a micro. it%26#039;s really strog so use it seringly. but you can use it was a treatment for your face or it can also be used as spot treatment just about anywhere on your body. i hope all this helps :)|||1. A dematologist will not make your acne go away after the first visit. However, they CAN give you things that will help better than the over the counter products you%26#039;ve most likely tried. They can also give you suggestions that you can do to help your individual skin conditions and concerns.
2. You will most likely need to be referred to a dermatologist, so make an appointment with your doctor, discuss your concerns, and you will most likely get a referral to see a dermatologist.
3. It sounds like you have scarring from acne, called hyperpigmentation, blackheads on your nose, and small under-surface blemishes that are appearing as raised bumps.
4. The cost really all depends on your available health plan.
Some suggestions you can try for your scarring:
*Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Gel by Murad ($58.00)
*Use a glycolic acid cleanser to help unclog congested skin, dissolve oil and buildup, and exfoliate to promote faster skin renewal, resulting in a more even skin tone.
For your small, pimple-like bumps:
*Mario Badescu Drying Cream. An effective treatment to dry up small under-surface blemishes that appear as raised bumps in oily areas of skin. Aloe rich cream conceals and heals erupted pimples. ($10.00 www.mariobadscu.com)
Going to a derm. is probably your best move because they can analyze the skin accordingly, and offer stronger products based on their knowledge of the skin condition that is most likely more accurate than our own.
Good luck and be well!
1)will a dermatologist be able to help with my problems?
2)do i just call and make a apoitment? and what do i say,cause im sure they probbly need to see my skin to know whats wrong right? i cant just explain it over the phone. so what do i say??
3)what r the names on the skin conditions i have??
4) how much do u think it would cost to fix my problems?
XOXOXOXO!!!
Becky|||1) Yes, a dermatologist will probably be able to help with your problems. They may not be able to make your skin perfect, but they can help you improve it.
2) That depends on the type of insurance you have. You need to check and see what your insurance company%26#039;s rules are for specialists. Generally speaking, if you have a PPO, you can just call the dermatologist and ask for an appointment. If you have an HMO, you have to go through your primary care provider (your usual doctor) and ask for a referral to a dermatologist. Be aware that most dermatologists are insanely busy and it may be weeks before your appointment.
3) I don%26#039;t know, but based on your description, I would tell them that you have acne, combination skin, and some kind of rash (the bumps that you described).
4) I have no idea - again, that depends on your insurance. Some insurance plans won%26#039;t cover prescriptions that are for completely cosmetic problems. Some will cover them, but only if your doctor fills out a special form declaring that the treatment is medically necessary. Without insurance coverage, dermatological treatment can get quite expensive. When you talk to the dermatologist, explain to them that cost is a factor.|||The doctor will help. You will need to make an appoinment. Do you have insurance to pay for it?|||Becky you should check out natural cures for acne and scaring.
The acne remedies youve tried never really heled did they? well try something they dont want you to know.
Coconut Oil or Neem Oil will clear Acne, And if you take a asprin and cut it with 50% purified water and use it as a paste on a bandaid and place over the scar it will break down the hard tissue. Here is where I got the info.

I have moderate-to-severe acne. What will my dermatologist prescribe?
I have looked into Retin A but I hear acne gets much worse away.
I know Accutane can also have severe side affects.
TO make things harder, I don%26#039;t have health insurance so I can%26#039;t go to the doctor very often.
With Accutane you have to have blood tests often.
So what are some medications I can look into?|||with no hesitation i would prescribe accutane|||try that murad stuff. it really works believe me.|||Well mate this one i can help you with, growing up through my years i had such severe acne my dermatologist said it was more like a disease, as you can imagine as a 16 yr old boy it was quite devastating. I tried almost everything you can get in pharmacies but then i was prescribed ROAccutane the results were amazing, initially it got worse and dried me right out to the point where i had to apply lip gloss every half an hour, but after six months it cleared me completely, not only my acne but this stuff even helps prevent scaring. However it came at cost, my blood pressure dropped and i ended up very nauseous and lathargic. To me this was a small price to pay because the results were so fantastic. If you do not feel this is right for you mate i can recommend that you try %26#039;Blackmores Natural Vitamins and Acne Tabs%26#039; and try not to wash your face with any facewash%26#039;s, they are full of moisturisers which contain oil which attract dirt into your pores. good luck mate

ask them about it|||Lasers work very well for acne but it%26#039;s expensive.|||Yes they can do that... but they make some other recommendations first.

hey i just went to a derm like couple of days ago and he prescribed me amoxil antibiotic and clenia wash for acne. I wanna know that will it get worse before getting better????|||No, Will be helping ya.
Try some cream from your local pharmacy with about 10% benzoyl Peroxide.
Benzoyl Peroxide is commonly used to treat mild acne topically. It consists of two parts benzoyl and one part peroxide. It is a strong bleaching agent, therefore when applied to hair or fabrics, can be decolorized immediately.

You will have to follow the directions exactly, and be patient. It takes a while to see results; ask the doc how long it will take before you see results. Also, if one treatment doesn%26#039;t work, he/she will try another.|||I went to a dermatologist and saw a major improvement in 6 months. If you have heavy scarring though it may take longer and they can only reduce the appearance of them.
Be prepared for some pain though. For severe acne they perform something called acne surgery. It involves taking a metal sharp (often used to poke finger for a blood test) and poke the zit or scar into the skin. Fresh skin closes over top and you have a smaller scar. The first couple times are painful; but as the skin creams and drugs he gives you start working it will become less painful.

Dermatologist or Pharmacist ???
This is one of my Final Questions, give me some input of pros and cons of becoming a Dermatologist or Pharmacist ?|||Unless you already have four to six years of med school there%26#039;s no sense talking about it. I went to school for four years before med school and changed my mind several times, this is the way it happens. some classes went from 44 people to three.
Everyone changes their minds due to the classes or the theory. If you already have the time in then if you want to take it easy, I would go for the allergist/dermatologist.

Dermatologist question?
one of my cousin went to a dermatologist and her acne clear up completely, so for thoes of you whho went to a dermmatologist, did your acne clear up???? Sooo if i stick to the regimen that my dermatologist recomended, how long will it taake my acne to clear up???|||It depends what your derm. gives you. He might not give you the same thing your cousin got and your skin is different also, so it might not take to the same things. You can try though. I%26#039;ve found Proactiv works very well, if used exactly like the directions say to!|||I went to many dermatolgists over the years and nothing ever really stuck. Creams, injections, even antibiotics for those really bad breakouts. Then I met a girl who practiced Asian medicine in LA and we became friends. She suggested that I stop eating processed food, like wheat and sugar. So I tried that and in one month my skin was CLEAR! I cant believe that was the answer all those years!
About 95% of the food in a grocery store is processed: crackers, bread, cookies, cakes, etc. If you read the back of a package and it say ENRICHED WHEAT, that means processed. And sugar, sugar, sugar..bad. some ppl have sensitivity to these processed foods and it does something to your hormones and then you get the acne. My skin is awesome now and you wouldn%26#039;t even know that I ever struggled with it. Try it, cant hurt! Eating healthy is more expensive but its so worth it.
