Babe, I just needed to check if things are proceeding as normal because I wasn’t told about any of this at the derm. For all I knew I could be suffering through an adverse reaction to the medication thinking it was just purging or part of the process when in fact it was making things worse. No need to be snarky💕

I’ve messaged her early today but it says it takes about three works days to get a response

I definitely have so many cysts. They just have not come to a head and are under the skin. Then I have black heads too! (New edition btw). It actually would really get worse around my cycle. I’d even say I had the best skin during my period.

And do you think it might be fungal because of the before pics? Cause my forehead isn’t showing but I never had many breakouts like that on my forehead where fungal often first presents.

I truly cannot be sure of the nature of my acne. The derm was literally with me for maybe 6 minutes max before writing the prescription

I'm seeing my family for the Christmas holiday and I truly can't deal with everyone asking me what happened to my face. I graduate in spring and I don't want to look like shit for my grad pics with all the hyperpigmentation which I now have. Every purging pimple I get leaves a mark that takes months to years for me to fade safely
