I just came to Hong Kong not long ago and seriously been having some bad breakouts! I don't know if its because of the air or just a change of humidity here. Has anyone seen any effective dermatologists? or has anyone tried the microdermabrasion or laser in HK?

There is a very bad air pollution problem in Hong Kong and just for you information, the indoor air can be up to 100 times more polluted thatn outdoor airs. These might be some of the reasons for your outbreak.
Your sleeping habits might also be the cause. The liver which is responsible for the detoxification of your body toxics is the most active during 11pm to 3am. If you do are not sleep by those timing, your liver will be working extra hard to get rid of the toxics, and over time, there will be too much toxics in your body, causing the outbreaks.
Please do not go for microdermabrasion or laser because they are very harmful for your skin. Although it looks better on the surface, the damage done to the underneath can be permanent.

Jamy81 - why is indoor air more polluted than outside?

i tried Dermaroller in Sheung Wan clinic, good result tel 31065588

Indoor air can be up to 2-5x more polluted than outdoors due to a variety of factors:
1. Closed windows
2. Recirculated air which becomes more polluted over the 24 hours needed for complete exchange (as against 2.5 hours with open windows
3. Addition to the outside pollutants of office chemicals, toner, perfumes, house dust and bacteria/viruses
4. A/C when not properly cleaned (eg every 3 months - including ducts!) collects and magnifies presence of pollutants

I also want to know why microderma abrasion and laser will damage skin underneath. I am only told that it's not so effective given the time and trouble into doing it several times consecutively.
