Beauty Is Skin Deep

My acne started when I was just 18. It started little by little with a pimple or two, then in less than a month, my face was covered with acne. I started using popular brands to treat my acne, but it got worse. I was helpless, so I used whatever anyone recommended. Everything got worse, and it took a toll on my confidence.

I finally decided to see a dermatologist, and she recommended oratane treatment. A few months later, I started seeing improvements. During one of my visits, my dermatologist told me it was going to get worse before it got better and I should brace myself. I got warned, but I didn't expect what came next. To console myself, I joined a Facebook group that has women facing similar issues, and I read through their stories. My skin got better, so much better that you'd never believe I once had terrible acne. I am glad I made the decision to see a dermatologist. Now I get compliments on my skin. It feels so good to feel good in your own skin. Now I am extra careful with what I put on my skin.My advice for anyone suffering from acne or any skin issue is to see a doctor. Avoid self-medication. Avoid listening to people who will recommend different products. Just because it works for someone doesn’t mean it will work for you. Seek professional help.
