Hi everyone. I suffered from severe acne for many years and now have quite a few pits in my skin.

I also have HS. Does anyone know of any dermological make up products I can use please which would hide them or make them less obvious? Some of the pits are quite deep. I have had 2 dermabrasions in the past on the NHS. I would love laser treatment but that is not on the NHS and I can't afford to pay for it.

Thanks Bev x

Hi Bev,

You could check out the free Changing Faces Camouflage Service. They have services across the UK - including Devon. Their website provides info on camouflage creams and services available.

You can refer yourself to these services (you don't need a GP referral). They can show you what camouflage products to use and how to apply them.

That is brilliant. Thanks ever so much Shell. I have booked myself in for an appointment and they do it at my local hospital which is near to me.

I will let you know how I get on.

Thanks again. Bev xxxx
