I have been having these red bumps appear on my skin for months. They appear in groups and sometimes just a bump on its own (Like in the picture). If it is a group, it will often be in a row, and in this pattern:
Bump (two inches of space) Bump (one inch of space) bump.
They occur every couple of weeks, although I did have several months in between outbreaks recently. They are slightly itchy & slightly sore. Usually, they range between a half an inch to two inches in size. They have no entry point like a bite. When they fade they turn to bruises. They have occurred on my breasts, neck, shoulders, lower legs, stomach, back.View Thread
Three or four weeks ago I got sunburned really bad. My chest and right shoulder peeled starting about 5 days later; however, my left shoulder blistered before peeling. Now it's just tannish. However, now I have these red bumps that either are like pimples (can pop them) or just red bumps. They do not itch per say, except when I sweat a lot. I get these red bumps every time I go out in the sun (even if I wear SPF 50). If I get any color I get them on my chest and neck real bad. In addition, sometimes I get small white ones on my arms where the sun hits my skin. And yes, I wash at least once or twice a day. Could I be allergic to the sun?View Thread

It is normal for the skin to get darker with time. This is a result of childhood sun exposure. The only way to minimize it is to wear sun block constantly. You may also consider getting a series of chemical peels. Eventually this can lighten the skin. Good luck.View Thread

Make-up should not interfere with healing if it is labeled non-comedogenic -- this means it will not block the pores and allow proper wound healing.
I hope that helps

These spots flake are dried and cracked, but cause no pain or inflame. I have filed with an emery board but to no avail. If I pinch my skin, they are only skin deep. but feel like a bump. Other than being unsightly, they are seemingly benign.
Pictures can be found here:

An individual can utilize Lip Plumper 1 to 3 occasions per day. Get started doing clean, dry lips. Apply a thin coating of Lip Plumper uniformly onto each lips using the applicator tip to stay inside of your regular lip-line

Step 2Ask your doctor about dermal fillers such as collagen as it availables in many lip plumpers now a days and Juvederm. These are gels that are injected into the wrinkles to fill them. Fillers are especially good for deeper wrinkles, as they "raise" the wrinkle space and smooth out the skin better than any other treatment.
Step 3Stop smoking. The movements caused by your mouth and lips while you're smoking can cause wrinkles on your top lip and around your mouth. Even if you already have them, giving up cigarettes will prevent them from getting deeper. When you move your mouth over and over the same way, eventually wrinkles will develop.
Step 4Try a chemical peel. It might be a good option if you have lots of small, fine wrinkles. Chemical peels burn the top layer of skin, removing the wrinkles and other skin imperfections. There are different levels of chemical peels, from light to deep. The light one might require several visits, but it's the best option if wrinkles are close to the lips or if you have sensitive skin.
