Okay guys so I joined this site over a year ago with grade 3 acne so bad that I wouldn't even go outside, I was depressed, sad, and couldn't get myself to look in the mirror without crying in the morning. After numerous dermatologists visits and being put on a medication that made horribly sick I decided I had had enough. I drove two hours away to see an acne specialist who was able to help me more than any doctor that I saw in the last 10 years. Within 3 months my skin cleared up and I now have clear skin and never have to worry about my grade 3 acne coming back again. For those of you who have questions about this I'll explain it to you! An acne specialist is someone who is a licensed esthetician that got trained in face reality products ( James Fulton the creator of retin-a line). They use face reality products (the only thing that has worked for me this far) and switch up your regimen every few weeks to make sure your skin doesn't adapt and to get you clear. They set up a personal skin care coach for you and do whatever they can to get you clear. Acne specialists are nationwide and you can find them by typing in "acne specialist" near me or "face reality products" near me. This is the only thing that has helped me and I thought I should spread the love and let you guys know that there are other options out there. I was so inspired by my results that I enrolled in a 600 hr esthetician program and will be graduated this weekend. My goal is to ultimately help people with acne and skin conditions such as myself because no one deserves to not feel free in their own bodies. If you have questions please let me know and if you can't find an acne specialist near you- the one I went to does long distance so I can always give you the info. My goal is for everyone to find a way to get clear and this is the only thing I swear by. Much love guys!
