I hope you can see these. Here are before-after photos.

Maybe someone can help if they are not visible?

You can see that it was raw, painful, breaking out, red, reactive, miserable.. It looks and feels so much better now.

I credit about 75% of the overall improvement to IPL. The rest is due
to EGF for addressing stubborn pinkness IPL could not, Licorice for
making my sensitivity vanish, hyaluronic acid for addressing the
dryness I still had. Emu oil and sea kelp also helped. I think all of
this is also helping prevent my rosacea from creeping back.

The "before picture" resolution is not great since I had to have it
scanned in. I was a little embarrassed because I had to do it at a
Kinko's. he he he!

Please note: After my experience with EGF, Skinactives submitted a
patent on it for rosacea, and graciously included me because of input
I provided to them.

Hey Artist,

Thanks for posting your pics. Wow, you really have come of leaps and bounds since the first snaps, congrats!

Wow, that looks really impressive. Just from photo -- you look completely disease-free. Congrats!!

Could you open your eyes any wider!?

Your skin has a delightful translucency.

Always a danger, I guess, that the collagen stimulating aspects of IPL, and topical EGF, may well indeed thicken the dermis but leave it looking lifeless, concrete-like.

This has certainly not happened here!

Thanks GJ! I am a bit wide-eyed in that shot. I look hypnotized. How funny! Artist

Hello Artist

Congratulations your skin looks perfect now and you must be very pleased.

What is the time difference between the before and after pictures ?

Regards

Peter

Peter. Thanks! The "before" was taken in November, and the "after" was taken about a week ago. So about 6 months. I wish I had a shot of me after the IPL and before I found Skinactives. If you can imagine that picture improved by about 75-80%, that would have been the picture. The Skinactives took me the rest of the way. I am hoping the EGF and Licorice keep me from having to have IPL again, but we'll see!

Great stuff Artist.

Do you include niacinimide in your mixture?

Thx

RHC: Not at this point, but eventually I'm sure. There are so many more potentials I want to try. I'm considering something to address capillary integrity like horse chestnut. I have a big list of ingredients and what I think they may address. I'll post it later just for kicks. We've talked about a lot of them. I swear I need ten heads or a bigger face to try everything I want!! ha ha ha ha!

Incidently, the new Metrogel has niacinamide in it. Anyone tried that? They ought to add Licorice to it!
