    Default Scars on Nipples and Chest..

    Ive had this problem for years, and it just now occured to me that that this may be the perfect group of people to ask about scars on chests..

    okay so ive had embarassing ingrowns on my nipples that turn into tiny scabs and scars, and small acne bumps that are new that have turned up on my chest OUT OF NOWHERE the last 6 months.

    I have never had chest pimples before, but the last six months where kind of messy for me, so I totally believe they are stressed induced... Well now im stuck with these scar dots that seem to be taking FOREVER to go away, and im starting to feel like I need to take an upgrade to what i should do.

    And as for the ingrown nipple hairs, I seem to be in the small percentage of people where tweezing doesnt seem to stop it. I think Laser hair removal is my only option, but i have no idea how many sessions it will take. Ugh something that can -easily- be covered with makeup, and the nipple hairs can be trimmed down, but I just feel soooooooo gross and disgusting when i look down at my chest and see these scars and tiny wounds and I am really at an end with what to do, it feels like Im in a .0001% percentile of women who deal with this.

    Electrolosis might be better than laser in this case. I would think laser might be too intense for that area.

    I had the chest pimple problem and my dermatologist told me to use some acne medication on it at night and wash with neutrogena acne wash in the shower. This has worked pretty well except for the occasional small pimple or 2 that I get once in a while. For the scars I use palmers fade cream,it comes in a box and is soo cheap. Works great. I dont have the nipple hair problem but my sister does so dont worry you're not alone.Try using witch hazel to calm down the ingrown hairs because it's natural and better for such a sensitive area.In the meantime you should try sugaring the hair instead. It's much gentler than wax.Good luck!

    I have acne scars on my chest. I usually use Revlon Cover Stay liquid makeup when I work. I have to apply it each time before I go on stage, but it works.

    If they just won't quit - Tea Tree Oil.
    (Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Oil)

    The remaining scars... I'm not really up to that bit yet. But exfoliating with the Tea Tree is reducing them so maybe it'll all just go together?? You could only hope, huh? Goodluck
