Re: Any ideas for acne? (Nucelle)

The nucelle starter with all the things (cleanser, toner, mandelic
serum, night cream, day cream) is 70.00. It lasts me about 4-5 months
because you only need a little bit. If you run out of one part, it is
about ten dollars to replace. Not too expensive compared to a lot of
the department store brands.
I had a couple small acne scars that have dramatically lightened with
the Nucelle. But, my dermatologist said that he could do a peel or
laser if they were really bugging me. My aethetician who does the laser
hair removal had her whole face resurfaced with laser and her complexion
is flawless. (before she had bad scarring from acne) I think that you
can find nucelle online (do a serch for nucelle on yahoo or google). If
you can't, you could call around to local dermatologists to see if they
have it. Or, I would be happy to give you the phone number of my
doctor's office here in Washington State.
Like I said, though, it took about a month to work and I had some
initial extra breakouts. But, now I wouldn't trade my regimin for the
world. Can't guarantee
it will work for all, but I love it. Hope this helps.
