Q : Did laser treatment do you any good?

A : In desperation, I saved some money and splashed out on a course of N-Lite Laser Therapy a few years ago. The experience itself was much like going to the Dentist rather than a spa. Each session took about 30 mins as the nurse had to zap each spot individually with the laser pen. I felt a tingling sensation and no discomfort whatsoever.

Overall I was disappointed with the results. I felt I would have achieved the same results from spending an hour with my face exposed to the sun. In my opinion, N-Lite Laser Therapy is best suited to girls with lots of money, who want to clear up occasional blemishes. It's not a practical solution for the rest of us.

Q : Why did you choose Doll with a Dirty Face?

A : Well...I guess that's what I've always felt like. It's a metaphor for a pretty girl with Acne.

Q : Should I grow my bangs out? Do bangs make acne worse?

A : If you have greasy hair then yes, it could be contributing to the problem. Especially where the bangs hit the face along the eyebrow line. But if your hair is dry or normal it won't make much difference. I have bangs myself and I love to style my hair to hide the acne on my forehead.
