Skin Problem, Scars, Sun Damage. Would You Recommend "The Gold Exfoliating Peel" From Mica Beauty Range ?

Hi, I m a 20 year old indian female from South Africa with problematic skin. I was on Roaccutane to treat the acne but I am now left with scars. I am fair in complexion but I can t seem to reverse the sun damage and get rid of the marks.

Would you recommend that I use the product? Thank you.

Hi, thanks for your query.

You have mentioned that you have scars and post acne spots on face.

The gold exfoliating peel or other exfoliating peels available in market are helpful but they may cause irregular peeling, redness, irritation which may further irritate the skin.

I would recommend you to get it analyzed by a dermatologist and start treatment in a clinic in the form of chemical,peels, micro dermabrasion, dermabrasion, laser which ever is most appropriate for you.
Here you will be in best hands.

Hope this solves your query.

I find this answer helpful
