Hello,
My name is Hui Ting and I am currently a student on the MSc Health Psychology course at the University of Nottingham.

This research aims to explore the participants perspectives and self reported effectiveness of an existing online acne support group. I am writing to ask if you would be willing to take part in my study.
The survey process should take no longer than 30 minutes. The survey results will be analyzed for my thesis project and individual results of this study will remain strictly confidential and anonymous.

I'm going to vent here.
We don't need study groups.
we don't need topicals that just take a $ out of our wallet and don't work for the most part after a while
We don't need surverys
We don't need more ''me too'' products
We don't need modified versions of the same old crap
We need something that permanently destroys or shrinks oil glands
We don't need anti bacteria
We don't need retinoids to increase skin turnover
we have NO hope because Dr's and Pharmecuticles only care about 1 thing
and that is repeat customers who are desperate and uneducated
they say prevention is better than cure. i disagree. prevention is good for doctors as it means more re-fills more laser treatments and so forth.
A cure would destroy an industry..people would lose jobs and products would be redundant.
Including the acne.org regiem
its 2015..and there is NOTHING..it might as well be 1984.
This is the reality. Sorry I'm not in the mood for another study which beats around the bush.
I'm 31 and I've seen this song OVER and OVER again. Get your wallets out medical industry and stop asking questions and get your greedy asses out and find one iota of honesty and kindness in trying to find a cure over protecting and growing a cash cow that does nothing but cause pain and suffering and a heavy debt for those in need.
I agree to an extent. Cancer for example is more than a billion dollar industry a year. I would bet my last dollar that the government has a cure. I mean come on...the advanced technology we have today and being able to even split an atom..but we cant figure out a cure for a disease that's been plaguing the earth for years. But they care more about profit and money to ever let that secret out into the public. Acne and acne products are the same way.
