The Third and Final Dermatologist
My mother had a couple coworkers who had suffered from acne, but weeks later they came in with clear skin. She had found the name of yet another dermatologist. At this point, I had lost all hope. I was put on a bunch of medicines twice a day including: Augmentin, Bactrim, B5 Vitamins, and Fish Oil tablets. For a long time, I was miserable on these medicines, and ended up having an allergic reaction to Bactrim. But, after the redness and infection on my face started going away, I was given my first facial. I remember this facial very vividly.

My skin for my sister’s wedding was acne free. But, from all the facials and the brutality of three different dermatologists, I had scars all over my cheeks. These are very noticeable in my sisters wedding photos, but my skin looks flat and smooth. I was happy with the results of this dermatologist, because I was able to have clear skin on an important day, where pictures would be taken non-stop.
Even that day, I would think, “If my acne went away I would be so much prettier.” With my acne gone, I was happy and more confident. But, my scars that I still have, always seemed to bother me. Every girls dream is to be beautiful and have amazing, flawless skin. For me, I wanted to look good when I went out in sweatpants and no makeup on. I just wanted to be confident in my own
