For surface old-acne scars, a prescribed exfoliation skincare and medical grade treatments that can fix surface problems.
For deep scars, a treatment of microdermabrasion or or laser treatments from a professional cosmetic surgeon.
For Hyperpigmentation or colouration scars, get prescribed a special skincare set that may incude Retinol and Vitamin C for peeling and proper skin healing.
Help with Acne or Oil-Control:
Besides Hormonal Imbalance, the source of acne or pimple are oil build-up and clogged pores, to tackle this, get prescribed an oil-control regimen that may include salicylic acid for drying up or hyaluronic acid for moisture balance.
Tip to reduce tired puffy eyes for the day of the event:
Always be hydrated and sleep with your head slightly elevated to not let moisture be trapped around the eyes.
Last Minute Fixes for Break-outs:
Just keep your face or skin clean and get prescribed a product with Benzoyl Peroxide to induce drying of the problem areas or acne.
