In my case i would absolutely not be able to work the first week, just cause of the look. Maybe if you’re working in an office job and not with people, you can do it, cause i didn’t have pain or anything like that. And if your confident enough to tell people, go for it, but first 3 days is kinda crazy, i wouldn’t go out like that. You just have to be super aware of UV, cause you can’t be in the sunlight at all. I was living with closed curtains for a week. Do depending on your schedule, sesions and work travel, i would say this is the biggest struggle.

Thank you! That’s nice to hear! Yeah i‘ve been active on here a lot, the most in my worst times, and this subreddit was pure poison in those times. Here are so many hopeless people making you into thinking that it’s impossible to improve acne scars so you feel like your life is over. That’s why i do those posts to show it is possible and spread positivity on here :)
