Cons:
none so far, maybe when it comes to the social aspect of keeping the diet
I have been on a high carb low fat vegan diet for about a year and I have been experiencing amazing results. I follow the guidelines of the 80 10 10 diet by Dr. Doug Graham but I'm not 100% raw.
Coffee, oils and animal products are not part of my diet anymore and it took almost 8 months to my skin get clear, I still have some hyperpigmentation scars and some pimple every once in a while but my acne healed almost 100%.

It works for me
I am 25 Man, I had acne for 10 years (not that bad but always at least 3-5 spots with different size). I decided to go full vegetarian 3 months ago and almost vegan. I eat a little bit of dairy product and eggs when there is no other possibility, sometimes it's difficult to avoid it but I eat it less than once a week. My skin has never been this clear, I wake up and I know I wont have any more spot and it feel so great ! I think the biggest changes come from my gut, I used to have a irrigable gut, it's happening way less from now. I am also a long distance runner (50 km to 100km runs in the mountain) and I think my performance were enhanced. It might be difficult to make the diet change but once it's done you'll never go back. There is a lot of tasty and healthy food !

I FINALLY have clear skin!!
So I already blogged my entire journey if you want to check out my profile, but long story short going vegan + stopping wearing foundation + stopping the harsh medications on my skin CURED my acne. And it had to be all three of those at the same time, because I tried isolating them and none of them worked alone. I used an elimination diet to figure out that eggs, dairy and meat were all making my skin break out. I HIGHLY recommend doing a strict elimination diet to figure out exactly what make YOUR skin breakout. I always thought carbs and sugar were making me break out - turns out it was the opposite! Now that I'm vegan, people tell me all the time that my skin is glowing, which is super weird because I used to be SO ASHAMED of my skin. Just a tip, do not try to go totally vegan and go totally off skin creams and stop wearing foundation all at the same time!! You definitely need to slowly make these changes so your skin can get used to everything gradually. It took me months to make all these changes for good!
