I don’t think it’s about comparing myself to baseline anymore, it’s the fact that I will never look completely normal and have good skin which is valued a lot in our society. I will always worry that ...

I was going to post pics but then looked at them and wanted to kill myself so probably not a good idea

Most doctors are ignorant about acne scarring especially atrophic acne scarring. A lot of dermatologists are too. In NZ I got a lot of horrible advice from doctors and even saw a dermatologist who had...
