What affected me the most (and still does to some extent) in the past 3-4 years was the reaction that some women had upon seeing me... I have already explained it in other threads but will summarize ...

Link to article: Even though most of the article mentions Cosmetic and Vanity reasons to use this, I think a more pressing application of this can be for Acne Scar patients!!! Yes, some people may w...

Even though severe adult acne and subsequent scarring has made me more empathetic in the past few years, that still only extends to certain conditions. I am empathetic for people with congenital or d...

My face is usually ~90% clear these days from using the acne.org regimen. However, I still sometimes get a pimple where the temple of the eyeglasses touches the skin of my temples... I am assuming t...

I will pray, but I have my doubts that God actually intervenes in people's live in this life.... I do believe that every person who wants to believe and seek God is given a set of life circumstances ...

I hope that you achieve better skin by June also! You certainly have been through a lot.

Hi everyone! I just got back from my 3rd session of CIT + growth factor and my face is redder than an angry tomato! 🙂 I can say that I have seen some improvement over the past 2 months in terms of w...

I can't say I have seen that in the past 4-5 years, though I haven't gone out in public any more than absolutely necessary. I became more introverted and thus haven't had as much chance to possibly s...

OP, do not despair. I recently turned 30 and have never had a GF before. I am white/asian so the scarring I have is also easily visible... Please try your best to focus on the transition from colle...

To briefly summarize what I have posted in other threads: I took two course of accutane, the 1st Jr year of high school when I first got cystic acne that seemingly came out of nowhere; and the second...

I will simply say this: the effects of acne and/or scarring on how strangers interact with you cannot be denied. I am not imagining different treatment that I receive compared to people without an ob...

The OP's post really hit home. Even if my scars and all future acne were 100% cured, I would still have the psychological damage from years of being treated differently by people because they easily ...

I haven't worried about dating for the past 5 years or so (recently turned 30) since my scarring has gotten worse and it is clear to me that the majority of women around my age have trouble accepting ...

I know what you are going through OP. Taking a 2nd course of Accutane my senior year of college was the only thing that kept me on track to graduate. During my 4 years of undergrad, my acne slowly b...

I guess your mom doesn't have a strong imagination. I'd liken acne to anything that is easily visible, that most people don't have. Thus acne could be similar to if someone had a huge birthmark on t...

OP - I don't know what else to add that other posters haven't already said. I can certainly relate in that acne and scarring has caused me to cancel some of my plans these past few years. Most of my...
