I went on a vacation to the sea. I came back with a gorgeous, clean face. I decided to go to a cosmetologist to do an acid peeling, forgetting the famous saying that the best is the enemy of the good. The doctor did his work purely mechanically, without giving any information or even telling me what to do in the recovery period.
I had a Peel
Everything went well after the first peel. Whitehead pimples appeared after the doctor used a more acidic peel than the first one. I started cauterizing them and squeezing them out. On my forehead and on my chin, my skin became very flaky after the cauterization. As a result, the pimples spread all over my face, appearing on my temples and not even on my neck.
I went to the beautician again. I came to her from work, which means there was makeup on her face. She didn't even wash off her foundation, started right on the dirty skin treating the acne with dersanval. After that she cleansed my skin and did another peel. After that, I spent a month wandering around the internet and drugstores looking for good remedies for my acne. I tried salicylic acid, deluxe acne, bodiaga, skinoren and more. But one pimple would disappear, and another one would immediately appear next to it.
I looked at my face and was overcome with thoughts. I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, I live in the country, I don't eat any crap full of food additives. I have long forgotten the taste of sausage and other smoked meats. I buy only expensive cosmetics. The result - problems on my face. I look at my husband. Older than me, smoker, big beer drinker. He can't stand vegetable salads and doesn't even eat fruit. All he wears is aftershave. And no pimples, no wrinkles, no other bad stuff. But that's just lyrics.
The onset of acne coincided with dental problems. The gum under my dentures got inflamed. I went to the dentist. They prescribed treatment. On the advice of Admin made an appointment to the ear, throat, nose, gastroenterologist, endocrinologist, gynecologist. As a result, in the ear found fungus, and throat chronic tonsillitis. They found helicobacter. And in addition to all the ailments, they found yersinosis. The doctor said that this infection could have gotten into my system if I ate an unwashed lettuce leaf or cabbage leaf. I was referred to an infectious disease specialist. The doctor said that I was in for a long treatment with powerful antibiotics. At the same time, he was confident that I would get rid of my facial problems after the treatment.
And, of course, on your advice, Admin, I started digging into the past, looking for the cause of all my misfortunes. We were vacationing in the Crimea, with friends in a private house. A lot of people, one toilet and shower, and common dishes for all living. In addition, not particularly clean water in the sea. And on top of everything - a dirty train, although the company and its own compartment. In general, there were many places where I could get infected.
Now I wonder what would have happened to me if I hadn't peeled, if I hadn't had acne, if I hadn't come to your forum and at your insistence hadn't started going to doctors in search of the cause of all my misfortunes. Where I would be now and in what condition - even scary to think about.
Admin's comments from the forum:
If you are trying long and hard to get rid of acne, it is a good idea to look at the problem from the other side. After all, pimples do not come to us from outer space and do not land on our skin. Pimples are the first sign that something has gone wrong inside the body. "Seek and ye shall find." And also read the materials of our site peelsIt is not recommended to perform peels on inflamed or sensitive skin, especially if you know the exact diagnosis of your acne. Especially if you do not know the exact diagnosis of your acne. Because if it is coccus infectionIf you have had a facial treatment, it can spread all over your face with the help of cosmetic procedures. Peels, and various laser and other therapies do not cure cocci. Only antibiotics.
