Hi Dr Sam Bunting! Love your professionalism and the way you explain skincare issue to us. It is genuinely helpful. On top of that, I just love listening to you! Have you ever considered doing a few podcast sessions?
Thank you Dr. Sam for being always watching over our skin xxx
a pleasure.
This was excellent info thanks so much….off to get some BHA
This is really helpful , thanks doc !
Thank you for your videos ❤❤❤
Very helpful information thank you 😊
I am so glad you mentioned oil cleansing clogging pores!! Don’t get me long I love Korean skincare but I hate the fact that it’s being marketed that you can’t properly get off sunscreen/makeup unless you double cleanse using a cleansing balm/oil and that micellar waters aren’t effective as a first cleanse 😭 oil and balm cleansers break me out so badly I think I’ll just stick to my trusty bioderma and normal cleanser
So true. My skin became awful after I started using oil cleansers because of marketing advertisement. Now I have acne and comedones skin 😭and I want to return to bioderma and normal cleanser.
hav you tried the ordinary squalane cleanser ?
Use organic grapeseed oil only that doesn't clog pores no need to use million million of mixed oils and then clean using wet wash cloth. Then go in for the gentle face wash. I'm oily as hell and yet this is working for me because of lenoleic acid in grapeseed oil
I have normal to dry skin and I used cleansing oil before and it's good, but now I used hanskin pore cleansing oil aha and it makes some closed comedones on my chin and forehead.l 😢 should I stop use it? And is it ok only used face wash?
i got so many clogged pores from oil cleansing ! did anything help u get rid of yours 😓
I had done 2 pico laser sessions for skin toning. 1month after the 2nd treatment it broke me out like never before, I have so many closed comedones on both sides of my forehead !
Thank you really needed video love from Iraq
Thank you. It's really hard
I noticed my friend who changed her diet completely changed her skin texture.
She had really bumpy skin which a doctor advised was a candida overgrowth, my friend cut out processed carbs and carb rich good and now she has clear skin.
I love the simplicity of your products and used them all consistently. Then found that some of the whitish bumps with no inflammation are sebaceous hyperplasia. Is your new retinoid serum potent enough to treat that condition or should I ask the dermatologist for an RX of tretinoin? Thanks for videos!
Thank you!!
Cells hanging out with each other, awww thats cute (eventhough not so pretty) 😅
Dr. Bunting, your azelaic acid serum is next level. Perfection. I’m replenishing next. 😊
So good to hear this!❤
What advice would you give for a preteen with closed comedones? Thanks.❤
The Paula’s Choice Azelaic Acid Booster with 0.5% salicylic acid worked absolute wonders on my skin! Highly recommend. It has helped not only with blackheads and rough/bumpy texture, but also when it comes to calming more inflamed acne lesions. And best of all, it made a noticeable difference within just a couple of weeks. I have never, ever seen results from a single product so quickly. I use it in the AM under my sunscreen and a retinoid in the PM…*chef’s kiss*!
Did you use it everyday?
@@Josh-fp2qn Yes, every day in the morning. Still working great for my skin 👍
@@alexandraprovenzano8307hey i am 17 do you think I can use it?
I had the worst skin in my whole life right before my mariage because of cicaplast baume B5 ! my skin was full of closed comedones. Two products that saved my skin are Salicylic acid and Differin gel, even Tretinoin cream had caused me more comedones because of the pore clogging emollients it contains.
Why don't u try tretinoin gel?
Wow skincare is so different for different ppl! I currently have the best skin of my life and I’m using Cicaplast twice a day!
Same thing happened with me when I used the cicaplast baume
@@sigetwibisono because it’s not available in my country we have only tret cream
@@amnakhan9241 yeah you’re right I wish it worked for me but my skin hates shea butter !
Very informative, thank you. How is sebaceous hyperplasia different from closed comedones? Would your suggestions be the same for sebaceous hyperplasia?
Quite different. You can tackle comedones with skincare. You can’t alter sebaceous hyperplasia, a benign physical overgrowth developing from the sebaceous gland, with skincare. This needs to be treated in a doctor’s office with a treatment like hyfrecation.
Because I’ve tried everything you’ve said for the time periods
Do you recommend using the Flawless Neutralizing Gel during the day if someone is using a retinoid at night?
Can you provide a routine?
Is it possible your flawless moisturiser is too heavy for my congested skin. I’m oily but dehydrated and in my late forties. Any help gratefully received!
I am loving this video so far, but I have one concern. You mentioned a cleansing balm may be the cause for these closed comedones. I had the idea that using a cleansing oil/balm is best to get rid of sunscreen or makeup. Would you suggest micellar water instead? I always double cleanse but these stubborn bumps on my forehead don't go away no matter what!
I prefer micellar water if I want to do a double cleanse. I find it less irritating and less pore clogging. My skin has never been better.
Hello,
I have a question should i cleanse my face in the morning and evening or just in the evening?
Thank you!
I’m thinking you meant to say Dapsone for the US. I was prescribed this for my Rosacea by my Dermatologist. Unless I misheard Zapsone.
Thank you for your information, now i'm no longer confused about why my face suddenly get some closed comedones it's because 2 days before i used ampoule brightening that contain ester as a derifative vit c
Hello, thank you for that interest video. I have comedons sins I was born. Maybe you know something about this?
Thank you
I think when CC oxidizes it becomes easier to pop
How about if I am using tretinoin cream? I am on my 9th week and I have a lot. They startrd on the 3rd week and it is 9th week and they are still here. They don't go away.
hey dr sam i dont have closed comedones just on my forehead it ialsp be seen on the skin nearr side of my nose few cm below eyes
What’s the difference between purging and CC
Most of the time my skin is perfect (besides period them i got really painful pimples) but always had at least few little closed comedones around my nose:( and no matter what i use they have been always there😭
Thank you so much Doctor for explaining all of that.
I suffer from closed comodones as well as acne and blemishes . I bought those following products but finding it hard to make an am/pm routine because there is so much contradicting information on the internet
The products I have is
Salicylic acid cleanser/toner
Aha/bha toner
Benzoyl peroxide gel 2.5%
Nanicinamide 5%
Rentinol cerave
-- can you please help me figure out a routine?
Did you find out?
Hi Dr Sam! I know this has nothing to do with the video but I have a question. I am currently taking vitamin D supplements, my doctor told me my vitamin D deficiency could be caused by wearing sunscreen everyday. Is it true that wearing sunscreen can block my body from absorbing vitamin D? What can I do about it?
Many people can have a genetic mutation where Vit D is not affected by sunlight no matter how long you are in the sun.Vit D can be absorbed by using drops available at a holistic doctor but it's more dangerous, skin cancer wise, trying to get Vitamins from the sun. A simple blood test shows what's going on.
From what my doctor said, yes sunscreens block your vitamin D absorption, you can continue taking vitamin D supplements or take morning sun-light for atleast half an hour. Using sunscreen is important in noon to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
Can I use azelaic acid alone to treat comedones, without any other products?
Hi dr.sam, I've just entered my 40's and facing a new skin disorder. I'm getting sebaceous cysts on my back. Are they in the category of closed comedones as well? I lead a healthy hygienic lifestyle and am not suffering from any other health issues. What could be causing them and how can I get rid of them forever?
That may be caused by your conditioner. Usually for body acne the best treatment is Panoxyls 10% wash. It worked wonders for my bacne.
I have tried all of these products and i've never found anything that works. It's so frustrating. I almost never wear make up, and i dont use hair products, yet i can't get rid of those bloody closed comodones i have all over my face.
So is it okay,
Am : Bha + Azelaic acid
Pm : Benzoyl peroxide + Retinoid
Name some products kindly
I heard that sometimes vitamin C, and copper peptides can be interchanged… I’m wondering if the vitamin C I’ve been using for my anti-aging has not exacerbated my comedones… Would you suggest setting aside the vitamin C, and maybe replacing it with copper peptides? Interested in your opinion
I was thinking the exact thing! I’m using Vit C but maybe it’s time to invest in some copper peptides instead and give it a try for 3 months
stick to the ingredients mentioned in the video - copper peptides don’t influence comedones.
So, what do I order from Dr Sam to clear these? I use her cleanser. Moisturizer broke me out. Think it was the niacinamide?
try Flawless Neutralising Gel. ❤
I have close comedones in my forehead and I was using oil make up remover. If it should be avoided what product is suitable to remove makeup for this skin condition?
Micellar water is best option and 2nd cleanser CeraVe foaming cleanser
general oil cleansers help
Would Paula's Choice Azelaic acid be effective if only used 2x a week? Just worried about skin drying because of the SA.
The ordinary azelaic acid is best, you we'll definitely thanks me later
@@iramsharif6473even for closed comedones???
do you think i can use azaelic acid i. the morning and retinoid at night and a once a week salicylic acid treatment
or do i skin cycle and do salicylic acid bha by paula’s choice the. retinoid then rest , i have been using differin for a couple years now and worked my way up to 5 days use but it started to do nothing and still had congestion so i added in salicylic acid
I think iron tablets are giving me CCs 😢 never had a problem with textured skin before
they're the bane of my existence, thankfully right now it's well controlled with bha, and tretinoin, but every time i slacked on doing skincare.. boom
How r u using BHA and tret togethee
Whenever i use adapalene my skin texture little bit improve but oil on my skin increase so much like within one hour oil layer appear on my skin and if i dont apply adapalene its oily but way less than what it was with adapalene what to do pls suggest something
It's drying out your skin, so it produces more oil to compensate for that dryness. Use a non comedogenic moistyrizer
Bha
Azolic acid
Benzyl peroxide 2.5 to 5%
Retnoid
Dont use vitamin C w the treatment.
I have been using tretinoin every evening for 7 years with no result for my closed commadores! No vitamin C though
Did uh got ur Clear skin now?
Do you have any improvements on comidons
From where to buy differin gel
Walmart
Could it happen due to sweat?
Yes if you have bangs and you sweat the oils of your hair clog the pores in your forehead
I'm from Bangladesh......How can I consult you from Bangladesh?
