    Yes Dr. Maxfield! “Drink more water to cure acne” is probably one of the most annoying and offensive things people can say. I think because it’s the assumption that you must have acne because you’re not eating healthy/clean.

      this! I've had a very healthy whole foods diet plus drinking at least a half gallon of water per day for the past 3 years. So being told to maybe change my diet or drink more water literally felt offensive as if I wasn't already putting in so much effort to try and be healthy

      It's kinda annoying and funny when some people immediately tell me to stop eating chocolate, dairy and drink more water when I complain about my acne. Annoying because like I have never heard that before. Funny because I like the look on their face when I tell them I barely eat chocolate or chocolate containing products in the first place and am mildly lactose intolerant.

    My 22 yo daughter suffered with horrible acne for years. It was heartbreaking to see her suffer to the point of laying in bed crying, refusing to go to school or out in public at all. After three dermatologists and several different treatments the last dermatologist is the one who finally got it right. The first one prescribed doxycycline, a cream for her face and a clindamycin foam wash because she had it really bad on shoulders and upper back also. Her faced cleared up for about a month and then seemed to break out even worse. The wash did clear up the acne on her shoulders and upper back and she’s not had since in those areas. Second one said she had overactive sweat glands. I don’t remember what was prescribed but she said if that didn’t work then the next step would be a type of laser treatment. She explained the procedure would be to apply a cream to her face and then use like a laser light that will activate the cream and paralyze the sweat glands. The initial treatment worked again for like a month and then stopped working. My daughter didn’t feel like it was overactive sweat glands so went on to the third dermatologist. He prescribed Accutane and she has not had a break out since.
    At the age of 20 she paid $800 to a dermatologist to have all the scars treated and just the one treatment removed all the scars. I do not remember the name of the treatment but it was an invasive one not just a topical cream or gel. I love that she no longer has to deal with the acne or scars. She is such a beautiful young lady with or without acne/scars but she could not see it and was so depressed over it and in turn I would feel like a let her down. I had many times I cried in my room seeing how it effected her to the point of depression.
    Well, this comment is getting too long. Just wanted to point out that it took three dermatologists to finally get results. I don’t know why and I don’t believe it should. Just thankful that we found the right one at the end.
    Also, wanted to point out that truly severe acne can have severe psychological and emotional impact on the person. Sometimes people do not have the means to see a dermatologist. My daughter started suffering from the horrible acne around 12 I believe. It wasn’t until around 16 that I had insurance & could take her to a dermatologist. So, believe me, when I say……..when it’s that severe most have already tried everything possible other than burning his/her face off and the last thing they want is for anyone, other than a professional, telling them what to try and/or do.

I used to make my skin so sore thinking it was oily and I needed to dry it all up when it was really the opposite. I put myself through useless pain because I had never known dry skin and acne even happen together. I can't really use acne treatments other than accurate (which was so helpful) because they are mostly targeted at oily skin! I've had horrible painful acne but always feel left out of discussion because my skin is dry!

Nothing worked until I went to see a dermatologist--and within 2 weeks I had noticeable results. So one more myth I'd like to bust--if you have really bad acne, more than 2-3 zits/month for months at a time, bad enough that you're in pain all the time and just really miserable, don't try to fix it at home with home remedies or over-the-counter products. See a dermatologist. It'll be cheaper in the long run too, especially if you have insurance! If your acne can be treated with OTC products, a good derm will tell you so! Also, Dr M and Dr S--would you include the citation of the study you mentioned where study participants talk about the most common acne myths?

However, it's even worse when these kind of myths are coming out of the mouth of a doctor and unfortunately I have heard such sh*t from doctors that often, that I stopped going to the dermatologists 5 years ago. They didn't do anything but make my rosacea acne much worse and destroy my confidence (by saying without even knowing me stuff like: "you should eat less chocolate"!). Anyhow, their therapies made my skin so so dry that instead of having the 3-5 small pimples I used to get, my whole chin area was flaring up with some still small but painful spots.

    I've had acne since I was 13 and still have acne prone skin at 38. I think a lot of my bad acne was due to the products I was using. I started using Cerave face wash, body soap, moisturizing cream, and now their retinol and it definitely decreased the frequency and severity of my acne. I definitely have worse acne the week before and the week after my period, I'm not on hormonal contraception so it's definitely hormonal related

    My youngest son battled acne for years. Took him to the doc, and he prescribed Accutane. Poof. It was gone if a few months. The lesions have receded in the last few years, and you'd never know he had acne.

So everyday i would dry out my face with that stuff and would wonder why my face was an oil slick in less than an hour. And i was doing this for a couple years…now i never take advice from my mom with skin health. And the annoying part too was my mom uses moisturizer everyday for her routine but never once thought about getting me moisturizer.

    I'm a victim of the "oily skin types should not moisturize" belief back when I was still in high school bc of my mom. Had really bad acne that would not go away and very, VERY oily skin, same as my mom. I found out that we do indeed need to moisturize and not only that, but that there are oils that help oily skin, which sounded counterintuitive but works very well. Told my mom about this and made her try moisturizer and a tiny bit of sunflower oil and she's thanking me for it now. My skin is waaaaaay better than it was and much less oily.

    Hi Dr. Maxfield and Dr. Shah! I've been binge watching your videos lately. I want to treat my mild acne with Differin gel but I have no experience with retinoids, thus, weak tolerance towards retinoids. Adapalene has a mid-range strength according to your retinoid video, next to retinaldehyde. Is this okay if I start with Differin for my first try out with retinoids? How do I apply the product, whole face? every other day? Or should I just start with retinol combined with moisturizer such as Olay Regenerist Retinol24? Thanks 😄
