I'M OVER 50 AND DAILY, MY LARGE POURS ON MY NOSE FILL AND I HAVE TO PUSH OUT GOBS OF WHITE STUFF. IF YOU JUST TOUCH MY NOSE IT WILL RELEASE THE WHITE STUFF TOO. I'M SO GROSSED OUT. THIS HAS BE HAPPENING FOR YEARS.
I AM OILY AND REALLY ONLY WASH MY FACE 1 OR SOMETIMES TWICE A DAY. I ALWAYS HAD BAD ACNE WHEN I WAS YOUNG, AND I STILL GET BLACKHEADS, BUT NOTHING LIKE THE CLOGGED POURS THAT I DEAL WITH EVERYDAY. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME???Clogged Pores?????
seek professional help!!! they'll know what to do.Clogged Pores?????
Try steaming open your pores, by filling a bowl with water and then putting a towel over your hear so that the steam doesn't escape, after you have steamed open your pores, clean them with an instant foaming cleanser, i like Caudalie. Then close your pores by rinsing your face in ice water.
Clogged pores are caused by a build up of dead skin cells which often stick to dry skin, so I also suggest using a moisturizer one a week, be sure to find one specifically for use on your face.
There are also some great buffing creams that are on the market that may help.
Also, drinking carrot juice will clear and prevent any blackheads or breakouts that result form having clogged pores.

TARGETED SOLUTIONS
1) I have dark circles and puffiness under my eyes – are there products that can help correct these?
There are two products that will address your concerns:
UNDER-EYE BRIGHTENING CREAM visibly lightens dark circles with haloxyl de-pigmenting peptide and vitamin C skin-brightening complex. Our formula has been clinically proven to instantly brighten with optical diffusers and to visibly lighten dark circles.
DE-PUFF EYE GEL quickly reduces visible under-eye bags and puffiness with fortified yeast complex. Our formulation has been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of under-eye puffiness and firms the sink around the eye area.
2) Will these products help fade my scars and/or pigmentation?
SPOT DAMAGE LIGHTENING SERUM is a concentrated complex that rolls right onto problem areas for targeted fast repair and a more even complexion. It diminishes age spots with 2% hydroquinone – dermatology’s most effective skin lightener.
This used in conjuction with our SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER SPF30, and daily exfoliation with either our EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM or our RESURFACING MICROBRASION TREATMENT will provide maximum benefit.
USAGE
1) Can these products be applied around the eyes and mouth?
Refer to the individual product information for detail usage instruction and precautions. Those that cannot be applied around the eyes or mouth are clearly marked.
2) Do I have to put the products on in a particular order?
The treatment routine is based on the four step process of “cleanse. exfoliate. restore. moisturize”. The MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM is almost always applied after the exfoliation process and before moisturizing. (Exception: for those with Acne-Prone Skin, the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM should be applied at night after using the ACNOSTAT™ OVERNIGHT ACNE REPAIR LOTION).
3) Should the moisturizer be put on before or after applying foundation?
A moisturizer should be applied before your foundation.
4) Should a man shave before or after he uses the regimen and how long should he wait?
It depends on which exfoliating system he uses. For the RESURFACING MICROBRASION SYSTEM, use Step 1 (Resurfacing Cream) prior to shaving to soften the beard, and loosen ingrown hairs. Shave and follow with Step 2 (Intensive Hydrator). For the EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM, use in the evening when not shaving, so that freshly exfoliated skin is not exposed to the 10% glycolic ingredient.
5) For the Acne regimen, in what order should the products be used?
AM
ACNOSTAT™ DAILY ACNE CLEANSER
MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM
OIL-FREE HYDRATOR SPF 30
PM
ACNOSTAT™ DAILY ACNE CLEANSER
EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM
ACNOSTAT™ OVERNIGHT ACNE REPAIR LOTION
MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM
TARGET

6) Is it normal when starting the system or using a product in the system to experience dryness, breakouts, red spots, or a pinking of the skin? If so, when should that go away or how long should I continue using the products?
Any significant change in you skin care routine can result in transient changes in your skin as it adjusts. These products have been extensively tested for safety and are not expected to result in adverse skin reactions under “use as directed” conditions. As with any performance skin care product, there may be a small number of individuals who do not tolerate its use. In those instances, we suggest that you discontinue use if irritation develops and persists.
7) How soon should I expect to see results?
Clinical results are product dependant. Refer to your product information for details. Although individual results may vary, clinical testing has shown that visible results are expected within 4 weeks of use on the average. Consistent use of the products for longer periods is expected to result in further improvement. However, if you find that our products have not met your needs, we will be happy to accommodate you with our money-back guarantee.
8) Is there an age recommendation for these products or is it made for both teen and adult skin?
These products were clinically tested with healthy adults, aged 18 and up.
PRODUCT SPECIFIC
1) The package says the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM has professional strength MMPI. Is there a %?
Our proprietary MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM formulation contains the highest percent level of MMPi technology found in any of our formulations. It is also the purest form of MMPi clinically shown to diminish visible signs of aging.
2) What are the benefits of the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM?
The MMPI SKIN REGENERATION SERUM is clinically proven to firm skin, visibly improve skin’s surface inside and out using a professional strength anti-aging solution; it will help diminish the appearance of lines, the sink and the sag. It is able to dramatically increase skin’s elasticity. It actually works to help halt the harmful effects of existing MMPs while diminishing the formation of new ones, resulting in younger-looking skin.
3) Can the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM be used as a moisturizer alone?
The MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM is a problem solution product therefore it is not intended to be used as a moisturizer alone, although individual needs vary. We always recommend using a moisturizer with an SPF after applying the Serum.
4) Is the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM oil -free?
Yes.
5) Can the SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER SPF30 be used in other areas a customer has age spots besides those specified on the directions (exa. hands)?
In clinical testing, the SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER formulation has been shown to significantly brighten the appearance of skin on the face, however we have no reason to believe it would not provide brightening benefits if used elsewhere on sun exposed skin.
USAGE WITH OTHER DERM PRODUCTS
1) Can patients on another skincare regimen prescribed by a dermatologist use these products, for example, Retin A?
We recommend that you consult with your Dermatologist.
2) Can I use just one (or some) of the products in the line with my own skin care regimen?
For best results, the products in the Dr. Wexler line were designed to be used together in the described regimen; however, each of the products was tested individually and can be used with other skin care routines. Please review the details in the product information for proper skin care advice.

We have taken great care to ensure our products are safe through extensive evaluation and clinical testing but we recommend that you consult your physician prior to using any new products if you are pregnant.
2) Are there any known products/medications/vitamin/supplements that a customer would not want to use when using the system (or vice versa)?
There are no expected supplement and/or drug interactions expected with use of these topically applied cosmetic and OTC products.
3) Will these products work with my rosacea / exzema ?
Although Rosacea and Ecezema are medical conditions, we have developed products specifically for use with sensitive skin types. Please refer to the “Recommended Regimen by Skin Type” section. For example, our SKIN QUENCHING CALMING MIST provides specific benefit to people with the redness and inflammation associated with Excema and Rosacea. This product will provide symptomatic relief, but will not cure the condition. To cure this condition, you should seek the treatment of a qualified physician.
