Guest guest Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 Hi Darren- Neutrogena also makes an acne face product w/ 2% salicylic acid, which may be a better choice. But please do a patch test first! I do not have problems w/ sal. acid on my face, & in fact I believe that some rosacea treatment formulas contain it (such as Purple Emu A/R creme). But I don't know how strong a concentration it is. Also - as you may have seen from other posts, some people can't tolerate sal. acid, & it would suck if you put your whole face through something that was avoidable! Take care! in Michigan Hi , > > Thanks for the reply, I'll stay away from scrubbing my face with the " buff puff " . I was curious if you know if it's alright to put Neutrogena body lotion on ones face. Is that okay to use or is that going to be too harsh on the skin? So does the Neutrogena lotion help in the exfoliation process of the skin too. I am going to go buy some today, I'll let you know how it works for me. > > Thanks again!

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Hello everyone, I have Keratosis Pilaris faceii rubra and have been dealing with it for a long time. I am now using a scrub brush(just on my legs) and Lac Hydrin 12% on my face and legs and have seen some improvement. I am also on a low dosage of accutane, but I don't feel like it has helped too much with the KP. I'm really wanted to get my cheeks smooth, but it almost seems impossible. Does anyone think just using Lac Hydrin 12% on my cheeks will help unclog the hair folicules? I'm looking into having Pulse Dye laser treatments in the future, or possible Photoderm again. I'm not sure if they will help with the hair folicules though. I have a prescription for Retin-A, but I would like to not use it because it makes ones skin more sentive to the sun. If anyone could give me some advice it would be well appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
