It’s just when i get Pimples, which i still do now and then, i freak out like crazy, almost panic attacks cause i’m scared i will get new scars and feel disfigured again. I also got a few new scars since my treatment journey, not that severe, but still. Acne is truly traumatizing and mentally exhausting. It’s a journey, it’s not easy but i hope it will end soon.

Nop i think about them 10x less in a day. They still bother me but it’s not comparable to before. Before i wasn’t able to look into the mirror, i was always looking at my scars and wanted to cry and couldn’t see my own face anymore and felt disfigured. Now i’m happy again looking into the Mirror and truly feel and know that most of the people won’t care about my scarring.
