I am 25 years old and have been dealing with acne problems since I was 14. At first I thought I just had pimples, but soon enough I realized this was more than your regular teenage growth. I went to my first dermatologist. I was prescribed some acne medicine that had to be refrigerated. I couldn't use dirty hands to apply it, I wasn't told how to remove it, and it eventually became too much work for a growing kid. I couldn’t be in the sun much, but luckily, I was going through an awkward goth phase where the sun wasn’t necessary. I kept it under control for a while after I quit, but eventually it hit me again, stronger and more resilient than the first. I went to another dermatologist who gave me a bunch of stuff, he was a nice doctor, cleared the acne. The problem was, I wasn’t told how to make my face feel normal. I felt scaly and dry. We even joked I was a snake. I went through a chemical peel that was painful and when I looked at myself in photographs, my face looked a different shade than the rest of my body. \r
I was in college and I visited some other dermatologist that isn’t even worth mentioning. It was this final so-called dermatologist that pushed me over to the anti-chemical side. It was less than a year ago in January, when I started searching for other options on the Internet. I found Venus. Ever since then, my face feels normal. I don’t feel dry and greasy anymore. My skin feels soft. I know how to wash my face properly and know how to maintain it day and night. I am so happy now. I am still working hard, but I am almost there. I know what foods can help irritate my face and what liquids may be better than others. It started out that the “pimple removal” part of the facial was the majority of the time. Now, I get to enjoy the calm soothing facial from Venus. Thank you Venus for everything.\r
