Do you have acne?

[wolfsinner 22]

I did have acne up until I was about 18, that's when I decided I needed to treat it.

 

Whatever anyone tells you, acne is not a good thing. I went to a dermatologist and had an intense isotretinoin treatment. It can be painful, because your skin dries up so much wounds start opening up. It was worth it though. I've known people who can't handle it though, mainly because it has side effects such as intense headaches and nausea.

 

Just go to a dermatologist, and you'll most likely be out of acne in less than a year. I've been free of acne for 5 years, it never "came back".

Though not extremely serious I have acne,and because of my bad habit I end up leaving scars behind. Its not just my face, but my chest and my back too. It's getting a bit better though.

Same here. Glad I'm not the only one with that bad habit... 

The trouble with my skin is, that it doesn't only have this acne problem, but also my skin is very dry and reacts to a lot of stuff that's not completley based on natural ressources, and even then I have to be careful. 

I went to a dermatologist once, for a different issue but I used that to ask him about my face, but he said I need a cortisone cream. And cortisone is among the things that my skin reacts badly to....

I'm saddened by my acne, both in my face and back.  :sad: I have very sensible skin and I scar easily. The worst part is that I can't resist the urge to try and get rid of it, and usually end up hurting my skin. If I manage to get rid of it, I'll have to use some special products to get rid of the dark spots. And it's worsened by exposure to sunlight.

 

To be honest, sometimes I feel ugly.  :sad:
