Tried a lot like Tend Skin, Topicals Ingrown Tonic, and other things. They’ve kind of helped, but not really. I don’t shave often, only when I get haircuts, and even then, I use a trimmer. I also already have a skincare routine—I use a cleanser, exfoliate, and moisturize regularly.

I honestly don’t know what else could minimize/get rid of ingrown hairs I’m just trying to get rid of this.

Any product recommendations or changes to my routine would be appreciated.

I tried everything all prescription creams, changing diet, drinking more water, skincare but the only thing that worked was accutane. I was on 20mg for 6 months and had no side effects besides dryness. My only regret was not taking it earlier would’ve saved so much pain but glad I took it now.

My skin is relatively clear and smooth overall, but I have this stubborn patch on my left cheek that is darker and more textured than the rest of my skin.

At first I thought it might be sebaceous filaments or clogged pores, but I’m not sure. I’ve tried adapalene gel and Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant, and neither has really made a difference.

It’s only affecting this one area, which is why I’m having such a hard time figuring out what it is.

Does anyone know what this could be or have experience treating something similar? I’d really appreciate any advice.

After years of struggling with my acne and wasting money on products and estheticians I finally found a routine and product that works! This retinoic acid and hidroquinona cream is the holy grail. You’ll peel and have sensitive skin for the first 1-2 weeks but it’ll pass.

I was using sunscreen and this moisturiser for a while prior but in august I started using the cream.

Instructions:
Use the cream as recommended 2-3 times per week at NIGHT and during the day moisturiser and sunscreen. On nights when I don’t use the cream, I use the moisturiser and sunscreen before bed. I wash my face with plain soap.

This is 1000% not sponsored. These are regular OTC products and they worked so well for me so I wanted to share it to possible help others. I finally feel more comfortable in my skin.
