Facing Acne: How to Cope With its Effects
As we are all aware of, there are emotional effects caused
by acne. More than those obvious red bumps on your face, there are effects of
acne that could not just be healed by any cream or acne solution and that is
the emotional scars left by acne. Well, no doctor or any expert dermatologist
could provide you with the best answers to this problem on acne.
According to studies, acne is very common when one is on his
teenage years. For teenagers experiencing the pains of acne, it is very
difficult to face the social impacts of acne. There are these marks of shame,
depression and even self-pity. As a parent of a teenager who faces this
problem, you could be one of the greatest helps. What could you do? You could
do a lot.
Remind your child that acne is temporary.
As a guardian, you need to be there and give the
encouragement to your child. You would probably see him or her so down due to
the way people and criticisms pinch him or her. Tell that it will not last for
long and that it would be successfully surpassed. Never stop to explain the
importance of moving on despite the negative reactions from others for their
words are not that important at all.
Bring your teen to a good dermatologist
Do not wait for your teen’s acne problem to get worse before
you go and see a dermatologist. The earlier the better, this may be cliché but
very true for this matter and you could realize the truth behind this. You need
to find the dermatologist who deserves your trust. Be with your teen as you
have visits to the dermatologist. Also, help your teen follow the reminders and
instructions of the dermatologist.
Guide your child to do the right things
There are some things or acts that may worsen acne. See to
it that you are near your teen to remind that those are not the right thing to
do and it would just cause bad effects. Explain the cause and effect of acne
problems and be sure t answer questions that your teen has.
Boost your teen’s self-confidence
Self-confidence plunges down when all those mocks and teases
arise. The effect to your teen would be bitter. Be there to boost the esteem he
or she has inside. Be generous with praises but do not use them just to
flatter. Tell your teen about how wonderful his or her talent is. This would be
a lift to his/her morale.
You are a parent, and you could help out your teen feel
better through the misjudgments of the society towards people with acne. This
is just a stage; it would surely be put to an end. Be there and support your
child like no one could.
