My temple areas

[DontWannaBeLikeMike]

The skin in that region looks horrible. No flaking...just looks really old and wrinkely. Like it aged like crazy. Just temporarily or? I've been applying palmers cocoa butter lotion for a week or so and no real change. Need help guys.

Try using Alpha Hydroxy Acid on that area.

My ex-gf was an asthetician who worked for a dermotologist and she taught me loads about skin care. Everyone should use AHA once a day, it is marvellous for your skin, as long as you are careful about sun exposure and/or suncreen usage.

The AHA that her boss, the dermo recommended was from this outfit:

Use either the 10% enhanced cream, or the lotion. I use the cream, the choice of which to use depends on your skin type and just figuring out which one is most compatible for you. The website above has a 'store locator' to find who carries this stuff nearby you. In my area, it is carried by most of the Rite Aid chain.

Be careful with that I used it on my temples when i first started noticing male pattern baldness and had REALLY bad inflamation from using it.

I use AHA's and BHA's for my facial skin and it helps remove scars and everything..

I also use Dr. Pickart's copper peptide creams (TriReduction P&R & SuperCop 2x) ..

Do the AHA's or BHA's (beta hydroxy acids... salycilic and others) during the day, and then at night use the copper peptides.

This will exfoliate... then heal.
