Lindsay McCoy, a finance consultant from Memphis, thought the family curse of acne had passed her by, because while most of her mother's family had been blighted by the ailment, she thought she was home and dry at the age of 31. But the first dreaded acne lesions appeared in the third month of Lindsay's pregnancy, and despite her gynecologist's assurances, the outbreaks did not clear up once she had the baby. "I had hideous eruptions on my face, and though my boyfriend Reggie was extremely supportive, he began to lose patience as my depression over my condition increased," she says.
One thing about acne... ONE size certainly does not fit ALL. It's "multi-factorial," to borrow a phrase from one dermatologist. So don't let someone on some acne website boil everything down, and make you believe that acne has ONE, and only ONE cause. They'll usually give you some 'schpeel' about "the true cause of acne" which ends up being nothing more than an over-simplification of a few factors, i.e., "the liver," or "inflammation."
I know how you feel, trust me. I wouldn't take my shirt off for years to show off the healthy body I worked on because the acne made me feel worse on my arms and back.
