Cystic acne

Marisa • i'm wildly inappropriate. I’m just a soul who’s intentions are good, oh lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood 🎶

When I turned 23 I decided to derma blade my own face, which is pretty much using a razor/scalpel-like to remove dead skin from your face which also ends up removing facial hair you can't see. This is done for a smoother makeup application... one day I put coconut oil on after doing this and the next morning, not even 24 hrs later, I had the worst cystic acne ever. I couldn't even move my mouth I had acne all over my chin that hurt so bad. I couldn't even cover it with makeup. This started in February I got into a dermatologist in September and he recommended/prescribed this

The pill you take once a day on a full stomach or you will feel sick. And I'm not sure if it's the veltin or the panoxyl but it dries you out sooo bad. There's a warning not to go in the sun because you will get really bad sun burn. The nurse recommended the neutrogena moisturizer to me.. I didn't want to use it because I was using this and the Clinique yellow moisturizer around the same time I broke out. But I've noticed drastic differences! I wish I had pics to show y'all but I never took pictures this year because of my acne.

Hope this can help someone out! Also you need insurance for these meds. They are RIDICULOUSLY priced..
