@Data10 as someone who had a kid who had significant acne, I can say with certainty, this can be a BIG issue for some kids. Unless you have a kid who has dealt with this, I think it’s hard to describe the feelings they have.
Both of our kids are confident kids, but their skin issues caused them a lot of distress.
One of my kids was a candidate for Accutane, and it was a game changer. He actually had to do two rounds of treatment but it made a huge difference in his self perception.
Second kid had every topical under the sun at one point or another. She was lucky that her derm found one that worked well. While hunting…the derm advised NOT to wear any kind of make up foundation. So the kid didn’t. Again, once the fix was determined, this kid felt much better.
To @Snowball2 I hope your derm comes up with a suggestion that works. I also would suggest getting an in person appt, if possible.
