Acne & Self Image

Acne vulgaris, for most, is a small discomfort and perhaps, an embarassing day or two when breakouts hit. For these people, it's not a huge concern and it's certainly not life altering. But for some of us, acne can wreak havoc in our lives. From our relationships with people to just looking at ourselves in the mirror, it can be a very traumatizing and damaging to self image.

Until recently, the extent of acne's psychological effect were not fully understood. At one point, it was thought to be something that everyone just "had" at some point. In fact, up until a couple decades ago, there was no actual treatment outside of herbal remedies and things of that nature. While effective for some, most people need something stronger and more effective long-term. Without treatment, here are just a few of the common issues with those that suffer from acne:

  • Embarassment
  • Higher Rates of Unemployment
  • Anger
  • Low Self Confidence
  • Social Withdrawal
  • Poor Body Image
  • Depression
  • Frustration

Of course, these are just a few and they are all correlated, often with one effect leading to another, like dominoes. Insecurities like these can alter the course of a person's life, stopping them from pursuing opportunities at school, in life or at work. Sadly, when people are ashamed of the way they appear to other people or even to themselves, they become mentally crippled in a way.

What's worse, it doesn't end with the way people see themselves today. People fear the scars that will be left over when their acne does heal. Thousands of people have the scars to prove that this fear is completely valid and real. And unfortunately, they aren't completely removable with modern technology like laser and facial resurfacing.

Luckily, there are solutions that can cure acne in a matter of days. No longer do we have to worry about how we look now or how we'll be scarred in the future. If people take initiative now, acne doesn't have to be a part of their life.
