The worst part of PIE is that it doesn’t matter if you touch your pimple or not, its still gonna leave a red mark. And then if you try and squeeze the pimple a whole bunch of blood comes out.😢
bro you just described my acne thank you lol I haven't started the video yet and was wondering what my acne type is. People keep telling me that I had marksn because I touched them even though I have told I don't
@@aleeysyafiona8693 And my issue is that I already bought alpha arbutin thinking I have PIH lol. And let me know if you find out the effects of alpha arbutin on PIE.
Over the past 3 years I have checked over every video, and I can now confidently say that yes, at the time of your comment, you were the only one to thank Dr Dray for not loading her videos with ads
My husband JUST asked me last night "If you were to create a skin care routine for me, what would it be...it must be simple". I think he's FINALLY coming around to the idea of SUNSCREEN! Btw, his was fine, all he needed was sunscreen. :)
I've been struggle with PIE for a while, it makes me sad sometimes because it's hard to heal, but I keep my skincare routine with all those ingredients
I've had 3 vbeam, 2 ipl, 1 ND yag laser and still nothing. Maybe the providers didn't use the right settings idk but I'm using tretinoin and azaelic acid now we'll see
Same. I used Tretinoin for a while which I think made it worse and more obvious. Now I’ve been using azelaic acid for a month but not sure if there’s a difference yet
I thought that too but editing takes quite a bit, plus she would have to find quality photos without copyrights. I feel like if she were to put a photo in the thumbnail, I’d be easier. I love her videos.
As far as I know PIE is more common with lighter skin and appears because of the dilation of blood vessels instead of the production of melanin related to PIH. That‘s why PIH turns brown/dark whereas PIE looks like redness that just wont go away. Not a professional though so you‘d be better off researching cause I might be wrong :)
In case anyone sees this comment, know that Differin and Cetaphil are both owned by Galderma. If you are looking at any of the Cetaphil products that would be targeted for acne, look first to see if Differin has the same type of product. For example, Differin also has a redness relieving night moisturizer which is the exact same formulation as the Cetaphil, but is $2-3 cheaper.
it should be noted that just because one company owns multiple companies does not mean that they are manufactured/formulated in the same way or in the same factories.
Oh I definitely have both. Purple marks appear around the chin and red marks everywhere else. This topic is super relevant for me, so thank you Dr. Dray for addressing it!
I've been loving Faded by Topicals. It has centella, kojic acid, azelaic acid, niacinamide, tranexamic acid, and licorice root. It smells really really bad but the smell fades quickly. I've been using it twice a week for about a month and my PIH has noticeably improved and new blemishes from masks aren't nearly as red and irritated. I'm going to start using it three times a week. If it's relevant, I'm half black.
It seems like a great product, but it also includs alpha arbutin, which is a great ingredient for skin brightening, but, unfortunately, it is not safe for pregnancy.
@@idreamofpeony I don't use it too often because my dumb butt didn't read the directions fully and only saw "2-3 times per week" lol! I'm going to try using it every day since I finally read the full directions two days ago
@@laurenneblett986 2-3 times a week doesn’t mean everyday though? Be careful. I noticed the ppl above talked you out of what your already doing. You know your skin best. I don’t mean to be rude either. I’ve fell victim of so many skin ‘hacks’, more doesn’t always mean better!
I used to treat post redness as hyperpigmentation and it's pretty difficult to find information online on how to deal with (PIE). Needed this! TY Dr. Dray!
I’ve been using the Hada Labo Shirojyun Whitening Lotion Japan version which has a good amount of Tranexamic acid(3% I think), hyaluronic acids and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate. I loooove it! Has been starting to fade my various PIE over my face
Dr. Dray, you saved my skin with your recommendations, especially with CeraVe. A little over a year ago, my skin got horrible for some reason even though I always had pretty good skin, even as a teenager (I'm 24). I've been following a routine with their products and in two months my skin has gotten so much better. Wish I could post pictures, but again, thank you for your informational videos as someone who can't afford a dermatologist 🙏
thank you for this video. for the longest time i thought the PIE i had was PIH because all everyone talks about in the skincare industry is PIH. I decided to try the it's skin LI effector and it's truly changed the way my skin looks. my skin has never looked this good so THANK YOU dr dray!
this is EXACTLY what i needed! i was going to buy the inkey list niacinamide and tranexamic acid but good thing i saw this video... i think i might try the cerave retinol.
I also really like the CeraVe retinol serum. So gentle, I'm using it to get my skin used to retinols, hope to step up to differin eventually but I want to avoid the dryness and peeling.
@ивана дамјановић I wonder if it's the niacinamide in it. When I've used niacinamide it took me a week or so to get used to it, I had the same experience
DR DRAY I'm so happy! My brother finally agreed to start a skincare routine. I gave him the jackblack sunscreen you recommend and told him to start with cerave products 😊
PIH has always been the worst part of acne for me. As such, green tea extract, licorice root extract, & caffeine are mainstays in my routine to prevent inflammation from occurring in the first place! And I use arbutin, adapalene, and vitamin C to resolve any discoloration that does result quickly.
@@paolandre At the time of this comment, that's likely what I was using with no issues; I can't see it causing breakouts. I have since switched to Naturium's Multi-Bright Tranexamic Acid Treatment 5%. It has named acid, encapsulated kojic acid, and arbutin. It's an absolute powerhouse of a product.
Thank you Dr Dray for this!!! Some of my PIE have been there for more than 3 years, they look like they were almost fading away and invisible , but sometimes when the environment is hot they just appear very red and very visible. This bothers me a lot!😭 Will the laser procedures help with the PIE redness when the environment is hot?
It could possibly lead to irritation as you're using three products that essentially do the same thing. Dr Dray has said simpler is better. Waiting 30 minutes between each item can help but if any irritation occurs it's probably best to eliminate
I use alpha arbutin and azelaic acid together just fine. They're both very gentle. As is tranexamic acid, should be fine with retinal/retinoids. I think Dr Drays liking this comment is approving the combo :)
@@vetsai8199 that's interesting. How long have you been using it? Sometimes more gentle things take longer to work? But imo, it's a newer hyped up ingredient used to sell more products.
Oh I wish they make something for dark circles. I promise I would stop wearing makeup forever ! Have been struggling with it since my teens and I’m in my mid 40s and it’s getting worse no matter how much I sleep or do all other good things to prevent it.
My PIE takes exactly a year to fade away completely. I had a breakout on my face 2019 December which completely faded 2020 December. Unfortunately I had another breakout around the same time which I managed to get under control thankfully. But now I have to wait another year for clear skin 😐
Before seeing this video, I just started incorporating Paula’s Choice Azelaic acid last week and have already purchased the GM Color Correcting Serum. I’m glad I chose the right products!
I love the Cerave Resurfacing. I have been applying it over my moisturizer. Should I apply it first? Routine is working very well, just wondering if it would work even better if I applied it first. Also, it lasts a long time. I use one pump. Thank you.
If I recall, you should be applying the serum before moisturizer 😁 I've been using it this way the past two months and it's done wonders for my acne scarring
@@vanessaarroyo1620 thank you...in an older video it's moisturizer first then retinol but in this one I heard it the opposite. Thanks for the feedback.
I just found a Korean gel moisturizer that has centella, licorice root, and niacinamide included! Three birds one stone lol. It’s the ACNE cream by pyunkang yul. Beware it’s probably not to dry skin types but as a combo girly I find it hydrating enough
Thank u for these recommendations ! Ive had my red marks for almost a year and when i asked my dermatologist about them he just told me to be more patient 😭
I always take Dr. Dray's advice and like 2 months ago, my skin was so horrible! I started to get cystic acne and very red spots on my jaw line and cheeks! I used to Cetaphil redness night time moisturizer and omg! My skin got better within a week of using it consistently every night! Now I'm just battling a little bit of dark marks on my cheeks but overall, my skin looks so much better than it did 2 months ago! She never fails! Thank you Dr. Dray!
Thank you Dr Dray for this post. I have acne as an older person due to stress and the mask. Which product would be best for me to reduce acne and marks? Thank you for letting me know
I JUST decided to buy the good molecules serum because I researched it and found a video from you were you recommended it!! And now you uploaded this video😍
The licorice root serum you recommended has been Amazing for me! I stil have acne and use retinol, benzoyl, ahas, so I really appreciate that it's gentle on my skin, unlike other treatments. You know we're all slathering that SPF thanks to Dr Dray!
Interesting how my derm suggested i get lazer for my rosacea and “dark spots” i said they were red from past pimples and not dark spots and he said they are the same thing. Seems to be used interchangeably but so hard to get real answers. Loved the info shared in this video !
I find Azelaic acid makes my melasma, PIH and also PIE from acne much much worse. It even makes my acne more angry. It’s a shame because I always see it as a HG. I tried many formulations even the milder potassium derivative. Liquorice root is actually a dark horse and has helped PIE and PIH immensely. I also find leave on 2% salicylic acid to also be really helpful too. Great video as always 😊
That's what those purple marks are. I always wondered what that was. Thank you as always. I have both conditions. I also followed your advice and used Vaseline on some of my persistent red and flaky patches on my cheeks. The redness has subsided. Sooooo happy. It's been there for awhile. I use sunscreen every day, even though I live in Toronto,Canada 🍁 and our winters are long.
Dr. Dray if you had to choose between the SKIN LI Effector and the COSRX Centella Ampoule, which one would you recommend I try first? I already use the corsx snail mucin so I don’t know if too many serums is a problem...
Love this video! Stress ages! I found disconnecting from the TV, removed a lot of my stress. Their ‘programming” was taking a toll on my health. I cancelled my cable and also Alexia! Tired of having all our conversations listed too! I use to keep the TV on for background sound, found silence is sooo much better! ‘ ‘
The LI Effector is great for redness related rosacea as well! Good stuff, I think you have a shout out in the reviews on Amazon so I bit. SO glad I did!
Thank you Dr. Dray. I am spot treating my erythema (acne red marks) with TO azelaic on top of my moisturizer and it's proven to be effective on my skin. I am thankful to have found azelaic acid because my skin somehow doesn't agree with vitamin C.
@@unwantedtomato20 I takes some time before you can see huge results. Definitely not an active you would expect fast and drastic results from. Hopes that helps!

@@javier8082 this product has definitely helped me out a lot and I think it’s the best affordable product for helping the skin barrier/calming the skin that I’ve tried :)
@@javier8082 I think it would good either as a day or night time serum!! Personally I use my curology treatment at night so I would use this during the day though, but it can definitely still work at night
hope next time maybe you put some pictures to make it easy to differentiate between the two but other than that your fabulos this is so informative and helpful!!
Am I able to use the Good Molecules Discoloration correcting serum and my prescription trentinoin on the same night? Or should I alternate these two products? Thanks!
ive been using the niacinamide from the ordinary and my redness has gone down significantly. my skin is sensitive so i cant use strong products or else the redness and itchiness will just flare right back up (i tried a benzoyl peroxide wash and my face did NOT like that) but niacinamide never stings and is very soothing. also using a green tea and centella toner, some HA, ceramide based moisturizer, zinc based sunscreen, and some mild vitamin c, its really really helped. i have scars but i want to see how much i can get them to go away with a good skin care routine before i try a procedure.
It's really late where I live so I'm going to watch the whole thing tomorrow morning but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for making a video for us PIE faces! 🤗🤗🥧🥧
Hi Dr Dray I tried to find “CeraVe resurfacing retinol serum” but it seems it is not available in canada is there any alternatives I can try. Reason I just wanted to go with this one is due to the reviews and getting feedback from you was final for me as after following your directions it has really helped my skincare routine. Thanks in advance:)
I was just watching a great video she has all about broken capillaries. (I have rosacea so I have them too & was curious.) I would check that one out! I think ipl is the most helpful one if I remember correctly.

I find Azelaic acid makes my melasma, PIH and also PIE from acne much much worse. It even makes my acne more angry. It’s a shame because I always see it as a HG. I tried many formulations even the milder potassium derivative. Liquorice root is actually a dark horse and has helped PIE and PIH immensely. I also find leave on 2% salicylic acid to also be really helpful too. Great video as always 😊
That's what those purple marks are. I always wondered what that was. Thank you as always. I have both conditions. I also followed your advice and used Vaseline on some of my persistent red and flaky patches on my cheeks. The redness has subsided. Sooooo happy. It's been there for awhile. I use sunscreen every day, even though I live in Toronto,Canada 🍁 and our winters are long.
Dr. Dray if you had to choose between the SKIN LI Effector and the COSRX Centella Ampoule, which one would you recommend I try first? I already use the corsx snail mucin so I don’t know if too many serums is a problem...
Looking fab in lilac Dr Dray! Happy Tuesday 😎🎈🎈🎈
Greetings Naddy N hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜....
@@whitneybrown4067 thanks so much and happy Tuesday too! 😃💕🇬🇧
I wish I knew this in my teens or when my daughter was in her teens abs early 20’s. Such good information!
For real! She’s a godsend
Love this video! Stress ages! I found disconnecting from the TV, removed a lot of my stress. Their ‘programming” was taking a toll on my health. I cancelled my cable and also Alexia! Tired of having all our conversations listed too! I use to keep the TV on for background sound, found silence is sooo much better! ‘ ‘
I listen to a lot of radio. Wish I had a classical or jazz station.
The LI Effector is great for redness related rosacea as well! Good stuff, I think you have
a shout out in the reviews on Amazon so I bit. SO glad I did!
Thank you Dr. Dray. I am spot treating my erythema (acne red marks) with TO azelaic on top of my moisturizer and it's proven to be effective on my skin. I am thankful to have found azelaic acid because my skin somehow doesn't agree with vitamin C.
What moisturizer do yo use?
@@aliceinwonderland4583 La Roche Posay Toleriane Sensitive Fluide
Hello do you mind reviewing the effectiveness of azelaic acid? How long does azelaic acid take to completely get rid of your PIE? Thanks
@@unwantedtomato20 I takes some time before you can see huge results. Definitely not an active you would expect fast and drastic results from. Hopes that helps!
I’m so thankful for you and these videos! I have PIE and I bought both alpha arbutin and tranexamic acid and I was wondering do these make you purge? Thank you
What lip product are you wearing? It looks so pretty! 😍
THANKS A TON!!! Iits like you read our minds!! Ive been gouging through your playlist for ages and needed the new version!!
I bought the centella aqua soothing ampoule last month because of your recommendation and it has helped my redness and skin barrier so much!! :)
hello how is your redness now and should I get this product
@@javier8082 this product has definitely helped me out a lot and I think it’s the best affordable product for helping the skin barrier/calming the skin that I’ve tried :)
@@miekesimone8050 thank you would you use this product day or night
@@javier8082 I think it would good either as a day or night time serum!! Personally I use my curology treatment at night so I would use this during the day though, but it can definitely still work at night
Are there any ingredients that shouldn’t be paired with the good molecules product?
hope next time maybe you put some pictures to make it easy to differentiate between the two but other than that your fabulos this is so informative and helpful!!
I love your videos but I think showing photo examples of skin conditions would be helpful.
Hey doctor Dray, does taking low dose is still effective also for treating acne (reaching the cumulative dose required ) ?
Thank you
Yes it does
LOVE you video 🥺🥺💕 thanks for always being so informative !!
and does cosrx snail mucin help w PIE as well?
Hi Dr Dray, which of thoses products are the best for combination and really sensitive skin ?
Well done Dr Dray for picking topics people can’t even imagine to talk about.. your information actually helps lots of people.. thank you so much 😊
Am I able to use the Good Molecules Discoloration correcting serum and my prescription trentinoin on the same night? Or should I alternate these two products? Thanks!
How did u used
Thanks for this great video. Could you please do a review of the It’s Skin products? They have so many serums, are they all good?
I'm on end of month 2 of accutane and was wondering about this! I have SO many little red marks from my purge😭
Keeping everyone up to speed on so many skincare specifics your awesome Dray ⭐️🔥 I would wear that color! 👍🏻
Oh thank you!
Happy Tuesday my Friend!! I Hope Your Day is Full of Joy, and Lots of Nice Things You Love To Do!! Always!!
Greetings U. Charlie hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜....
@@jackiemarsh2470 sweet lady thanks so much same to you!! 👉🏻☀️🙏🎉
@@whitneybrown4067 thank you! Have a great day! ☀️👌🏻
ive been using the niacinamide from the ordinary and my redness has gone down significantly. my skin is sensitive so i cant use strong products or else the redness and itchiness will just flare right back up (i tried a benzoyl peroxide wash and my face did NOT like that) but niacinamide never stings and is very soothing. also using a green tea and centella toner, some HA, ceramide based moisturizer, zinc based sunscreen, and some mild vitamin c, its really really helped. i have scars but i want to see how much i can get them to go away with a good skin care routine before i try a procedure.
heyy idk if youll see this but can u please expand what brands for the rest of ur skincare routine ur using? (centella toner, sunscreen, etc) thanks!
Great video. I have learned so much from your videos also my skin improved so much over the years from your suggestions.
I have PIE for more than 6 YEARS. now here me out: AZELAIC ACID IS THE BEST AND MOST UNDERATED
Did it help you? What products did you use?
wow i’ve been waiting on this video for so long!!! i have recently rewatched your first one about PIE but this one is even more helpful 😊
It's really late where I live so I'm going to watch the whole thing tomorrow morning but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for making a video for us PIE faces! 🤗🤗🥧🥧
Thank you so much, this is so informative.
I will actually buy one of the products and run to see my dermatologist!
😚😍
I would love to know about your jewelry today - beautiful! Content is really useful today, too.
Would Differin Gel also help? Along with the Cerave Resurfacing Retinol Serum?
Both are retinoid derivatives so choose 1
Hi Dr Dray I tried to find “CeraVe resurfacing retinol serum” but it seems it is not available in canada is there any alternatives I can try. Reason I just wanted to go with this one is due to the reviews and getting feedback from you was final for me as after following your directions it has really helped my skincare routine. Thanks in advance:)
I was literally searching your old videos for this yesterday
I know right, this couldn't have come at a better time
Dr. Dray, what is the best laser treatment for broken capillaries? I have them all over my face, some large some really small. Thanks so much
I was just watching a great video she has all about broken capillaries. (I have rosacea so I have them too & was curious.) I would check that one out! I think ipl is the most helpful one if I remember correctly.
Assalaam Alaikum my lovely lovely Dr. Dray. Have a great day everyone. ❤️❤️❤️
Enjoy your day friend 😊
Thank You!! You Have a Great Tuesday Too!!
Happy Tuesday!
You too!
Greetings Zahra Qauomi hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜....
I feel that caudalie resevotrol serum can help to reduce acne scar quite fast and effectively. The main ingredient is grapeseed.
Can I use the good molecules serum you mentioned on my chest for PIE?
