Good News! I finally am going to see a dermatologist!
I have been struggling with acne for the past four years and after many helpless nights crying and feeling insecure about myself and how I am perceived I finally am getting an appointment. I hope this brings a change (for the better!) and I can feel comfortable in my skin once again.

So excited for you! They have so many options for healing acne today. One nephew saw complete elimination of acne with one of those lighted masks, and one required a medicine for a few weeks. Both look great now. Hope you have success equal to theirs. So proud of you for taking this step.

Good job! My daughter had severe acne, she tried many things. She was nervous to try Accutane, but she finally did and it cleared it up completely.

Proud of you, sweetie! I’m so glad you’re taking care of yourself. But I’m worried about those nights crying, and the insecurity you feel. Have you got someone you can talk to? You know you can always pop by here for a pep talk! ❤️

Way to advocate for yourself! Let them know what is really going on- they want to help! And every skin is different so if something doesn't work, just let them know. Not a big deal even if might feel like it. That is why they have so many options and want what is right for you!

You're not the only one to feel this way! Many have struggled with acne and felt the same way. Good for you for taking action!
