I do not know how much money you are spending every month/year to treat your acne condition, but I do know how much I "SPENT" to treat my acne. A few years ago, I was really troubled by acne, and to be honest with you, I had hundreds of them on my face, and they were swelling severely. Firstly I would spend money on OTC medicine and cosmetics treatment. OTC pills, gel (sometimes alcohol, since I had an oily face), cleansers and so on, would cost me about $100 every month.
The money spent was not worth it. I was not getting any results. After a few months, I decided that I'd better go to see a doctor. Ooh I must say the nurses and the doctors were really friendly. I enjoyed going there because I saw hope there (Since the doctors acted like my acne condition was not so bad after all). Every two weeks I would go to the clinic and reload my Accutane pills and antibiotics.
But what I didn't realize was that I was spending about $300 per visit, so I was spending $600 a month on the medical bills. It was not possible for me, a student, to pay for those bills, so I had to quit. To tell you about the results, my acne did improve very significantly. But it did not take long for the acne to come back again. And I could also see some serious side effects from the medication I took.
If you are taking those antibiotics and Accutane, you will experience side effects like joint pain, nausea, skin dryness, peeling lips skin, hair loss and so on. If you are expecting birth, taking those medication can cause defects in your baby. You can see just how serious it is. They are darn expensive and cause some serious side effects.
These two reasons were enough for me to find other better alternatives for my acne. It had taken me another 2 years time(since quitting the dermatology visits) to find out what works and what works not. Those hard learned wisdom will all be shared here in this blog. And if you have any questions about anything related to acne or actually any stuff you would like to share, do comment on my posts.
I am sure that by using the methods I will be sharing with you in the future, you will save a bunch of money off the medicine, pills and expensive treatment that don't work exceptionally well.
So long for today,
Bye
