(HealthNewsDigest.com) – FREDERICKSBURG, Va. – (September 11, 2014) – Millions of men and women of all ages suffer from acne every day. While acne is physically present in the form of pimples and blackheads on the face, neck, back and shoulders, some effects of acne cannot be seen.
“Acne is the most common skin disorder, affecting millions of people and we spend billions of dollars on products to try to get rid of our blemishes,” affirms Crystal Wellman, master aesthetician and owner of Crystal Clear Acne Clinic. “Unfortunately, some acne leaves scarring that isn’t fixed by an over-the-counter acne treatment.”
A study from the National Institutes of Health shows that acne has significant effect on self-image and impacts quality of life. The impact of acne may be equivalent to that of asthma or epilepsy. Crystal Wellman describes three invisible effects of acne:
- Low Self-Esteem. The presence of acne causes many men and women to feel embarrassed. Women tend to hide their acne with heavy make-up or long hair, despite the fact that this may aggravate their acne.
- Social Phobias. Especially in teenagers, the presence of acne causes people to withdraw from friends and activities. The fear of negative comments and views from fellow peers can cause shyness and even social phobias.
- Depression. In extreme cases, acne can result in complete removal from society and depression. Signs of depression include loss of appetite, mood disturbance and lethargy.
“Unfortunately, acne can leave emotional scars as well as physical ones. The best course of action is to visit an acne specialist to treat your individual acne.” affirms Wellman. “At Crystal Clear Acne Clinic, it’s amazing to watch clients go through the process of getting clear skin, to watch their confidence grow and the invisible effects of acne lessen.”
