No I am not. Its not an allergic reaction. IDK I clearly see new dots after each use of lip stain. Weird maybe the chemicals are drying my lips out causing more oil to be produced? Either way thanks for the advice much appreciated.

Hey guys lets keep this thread going. It was dead for some time. Well I am in my late 30's and never had these before last year. I was having adult acne which was embarrassing as most adults don't have acne. I started using a clean and clear facial cleanser and the adult acne went away, but these fordyce spots appeared on my lips bottom and top. I have tried many things and nothing makes the go away. I try to keep the lips slightly moist with blistex lip medex and I think it makes them less noticeable as no one has said anything about them although I try not to lock eyes with people very long. I really hope I'm the only one who notices them as this is depressing.

Ok I have had these spots for a couple years now and I have never noticed them on anyone else I know but they really have made stay in unless I need to go out. I researched them and there was never a cure I'm tired of people pressing their lips together or licking their lips when they see me. This really made me more depressed than ever but here is what I'm going to try I'm sure it will work. I don't wanna burn my lips I want them to disappear naturally. Has anybody ever heard of MBI Collodial Silver? I used it once to get rid of a bump on my penis that nothing to do with a std it was just there not even two days later it was GONE. I was shocked I researched this stuffbefore iI bought it and people were using it for everything from bad coughs to foot infections. Its a clear liquid has no taste close to water but I didn't have fordyce at this time but since reading this its my last option and I'm sure it will work. I got from the mall at a nutrition store GNC I think. That stuff helps a lot of problems and it was $32 so if u wanna try it let me know it goes I will repost after I get it. Thanks for this site I thought I was alone with this kinda makes me feel better.

I really think that permanent tatooing should work. I know 1Wish said it didnt work but then again I'm not sure what kind of procedure he had done. I rad online there are some permanent tatoos that last 5-7 years. Also I researched online and found a Japanese procdue called sebaceous gland ablation..... Guys please keep this thread alive!

Hi all!Yes we are going to keep this thred going until we find a cure that works!! I went to a skin-doctor and showed him my fordyce spots that are all over my upper lip. He understood my concern and is going to help me :) . Either i'm going to get BCA-acid (there's a scientific report about BCA-acid if you search on google) or i will start taking accutane for 6-8 months. He said that this might work. I think BCA-acid will work!! I've also been taking tretinoin cream on my lip for the last 4 months. Sorry to say but that didn't work. My lips only got a little bit better and the spots became a little bit more invisible. I think that the spots are too deep into the skin and that the cream cannot reach them. I will post more about my progress, and you should read more about BCA-acid!!!Good luck everyone.

That's awesome to hear. Keep us informed on your treatment as there are many of us looking for a solution. I don't think people notice them as much as we do as I have a hot chick I work with and we have to be real close to each other and she had a close up view of my lips many times, but just admitted to me that she wants to date me. But I know those of us with the spots just want the peace of mind of looking in the mirror and not seeing these spots.

Apple Cider vinegar doesn't work at all, sorry! I have tried it without any improvements. The spots are deep into the lip and needs a much more stronger treatment. Like BCA acid, co2 laser, accutane. Tretinoin cream made my spots a little bit better so you can try that as well. But it takes a few months for it to work. Be patient! :) Bought it on a online pharmacy. I know that the spots are not so visible for other people, but once you noticed them yourself it becomes a hugh psychological problem and you can't stop thinking about it. I have a girlfriend and she didn't noticed the spots at all before i told her about them. And she doesn't think they are disgusting! The best thing you can do is to go to an skin-doctor and hopefully get a proper treatment. Stop trying to treat them yourself with vinegar, carmex, jojoba oil and stuff like that, it will only make you feel disappointed because the lack of improvements.

So new here. Went to Derm today who does laser stuff and I had to tell him what it's was. He's board certified but had to break out a book to look it up. Said he hasn't seen it many years. Gonna try the trentinion cream first. .025% Figured I go least invasive and work from there. I'm 35 and just noticed them two months ago but probably have been there a while. Recently single so of course there stressing but no one has ever mentioned them to me. Pretty much one half of upper lip medium to mildly covered. Derm did give me a number to the best guy in florida so called and they said they've treaded these but have to do a consultation. Guess I'll give the cream a few months and go from there. From what it sounds on here it's like some people do good with some things and others with other things but I'll keep following and updating.

hi SSS, how many times you use the lactic acid in a day and how long you let it stay on the lips?few minutes? I bought Refresh Therapy Lactic Acid 10% and Tretinoin 5% and I wanna try the combination.Also I am already using Jojoba Oil 3 times a day and Tretinoin at night.Thanks

I went to a micropigmentalogist yesterday and she said because the dots are filled wit oil tatooing the lips will not work. Also I woke up with a swollen red dot on my upper lip that I know is a fordyce spot but looks like a pimple. Uhhhh I am getting so tried of this.
