yes derm is expensive, but so is buying and trying all these products that may or may not work like you’ve probably spent more with trial and error

Accutane which destroys your liver and has the possibility of acne returning? Fun

obviously it’s not the right choice for everyone and it’s important to be aware of the severe health side effects but also. if you don’t have severe acne you don’t know how much it affects your life

my derm said that there’s a lot of misinformation online and they technically don’t even make accutane anymore. it’s a different drug entirely, but people still call it that

she gave me a note sheet and they check blood every 2 months to keep an eye on things like it’s required

I have such deep scars. I have been on a retinoid for a year and taken different pills to block certain hormones and pimples still come and create new scars. it’s exhausting.

i feel you. i wouldn’t even say my acne is severe but i have scars that make me so self conscious, and even now i see myself developing new scars that i worry about. i’m not at the point of wanting to take medication for it but i can absolutely understand how people would get to that point. it’s so easy for people to judge from outside the club

I used to have it and it’s gotten better, but scars still there no matter what I do. it really does make you self conscious like I just want to go outside without makeup and not have a red face 😭 it makes me so frustrated when people argue with me that a snail serum will solve my problems and get mad when I won’t do that. i’m seeing a doctor!! just needed to vent, thank you for understanding!!

yes the redness is so frustrating! i even feel so much more beautiful with concealer and nothing else bc my skin impacts how i feel so much. i also used to have pretty bad dermatillomania, so even though they’re fully healed and there’s no redness, i have acne scars all along my forehead that other people my age don’t have. it sucks. and my acne is hormonal so no matter how good my skincare routine is, i will still get pimples. it’s exhausting when ppl act like one product will fix it all

The way all that shit that people have insisted I try instead of seeing a dermatologist made my skin so bad. My entire face was covered in cystic acne, had flakey dry patches of skin that were peeling off and bleeding, bring red and burning.
