3:01 Calling it bad skin maybe wasn't the nicest thing to say Cat, and then make her feel worse by telling her how gross you felt when you had it.

[@NB-lk7yd]

I cringed when she said that! 😬

[@VerticalVee]

​@NB-lk7yd in all fairness when she said it she was referring to her own skin and personal experience with it. I have acne as an adult and still to this refer to it as having bad skin despite knowing what I now know about it.

[@Wheezysbubble]

In her defense (and as someone who has suffered with bad acne my whole adult life), I wouldn't look in the "bad skin" comment too much. Bad skin is another way of saying problematic/misbehaving skin... which it is, let's face it. The skin is acting up in a way that affects people negatively physically and mentally - therefore it is bad in that sense. People are beautiful despite their breakouts, but it's just a simple way to refer to it. I take no offense to this comment.

[@ri-oh7799]

Isotretinoin saved my skin and my confidence in my early 20s! I tried everything and I was lucky to have a good dermatologist that helped me on this journey, way before all the information was available like it is today on the internet. My treatment took 8 months and on the first month my acne was almost all gone, my face was clear and I couldn’t believe my eyes. I’m grateful for her. Treating inside out is the best way for severe cases.

It’s horrific that she is being made to wait so long for a referral when her acne is so severe. The mental anguish this causes is no joke! I took a course Roaccutane in my late 20s and unfortunately my acne did return, although not as bad and has been managed since with Dianette. However I am due to come off it as I’ve been on it a long time. Looks like I’ll be going private if I need to see a dermatologist again!

[@flipperbigg8943]

I also think we need to talk about the aftermath of getting rid of the acne because the scarring it can leave behind can be even worse than the actual acne it self and it’s important you have a good skin care to help fix that damage or reduce it when having active acne

[@paulahunter7100]

As a 40 yr old my dermatologist prescribed for me Aldactone, or the generic name Spironolactone. This drug is a diuretic and has minimal side effects. I'm not sure if it's still prescribed, but it really helped! You have to make sure you drink water and eat fruit, just not grapefruit though. The drug was not created to cure acne, but it's side effects do

I started getting acne at age 11. I’m 31 now and still get spots. I started using Epiduo gel from the doctors about 3 years ago. It has helped a lot. I don’t have big breakouts anymore. It’s a very strong cream though so it does dry your skin out, and if you use too much it will burn your skin and leave you red and peeling. So I’m careful to only use it when necessary. All those years I never went to the doctors assuming it would just go away eventually. My mum never took me as a teenager either. It massively affected how I am now as an adult. I am very very introverted. My teen years I had friends. But I avoided at all costs talking to anybody new because I didn’t want anybody to look directly at me. Now, although I’ve got better over the years, I’m quite shy and not the chattiest in the room. So I believe it had a massive effect on the way I am today. Those important years developing my personality were hindered by me just wanting the ground to swallow me up.

[@ClaireJewson-np6hx]

Roacuttaine is the only meds that will clear acne x It’s administered through a dermatologist. You’re monitored with monthly blood tests . The side effects are aching joints, nose bleeds and dry lips. However the benefits of the drug far out way the side effects x Your dosage is dependent on your weight and this was constantly checked at the hospital with monthly blood tests for a total of 20 weeks x Hope this helps 🎉 Good luck to all on your acne journey ❤❤❤❤

​@@jonatikaWwe Eliminating high histamine and histamine liberator foods is the solution. You have to be super aware of any changes you see and what could have triggered it.

[@jm7174]

I had terrible acne as a teenager and tretinoin helped tremendously. But I couldn’t afford it for long. Going on birth control helped in my 20s but I wouldn’t recommend that to everyone. I was on/off tretinoin in my 30s bc I had 2 pregnancies and you have to be off it during those times. I started to get acne again in my 40s even with tretinoin and it was definitely due to perimenopause. I paid for 3 rounds of the Accure laser (about $5k total) which targets subaceous glands. There was purging after each round but it helped so much. If I get a pimple, it is so small and it’s gone if I put salicylic acid on it. Accure laser was a game changer.

You don’t need medication. You need to improve your diet. How they push this narrative is beyond me. I’ve had acne scars for more years I’ve been alive. Suddenly, cutting sugar, exercising, it went away. Medicine is nuanced and things can be different for different people. But diet, sleep and weight need to be the first thing you speak. Not medication. God awful propaganda
