Well I am finally heading to the dermotologist and I was just wondering what should I expect?
I really have high hopes because all of the things that my regular docotor perscribed for me did not work. So I am very hopefull that the Derm will look at me and give me my cure. God I hope thats the case.....I can hope can't I? Posted on 06/15/09, 09:06 pm |

Well your derm. will first ask you whats been bothering you (if he can't already tell)-then he will examine the acne-covered areas of your body. After that he will ask you how sensitive your skin is and about what treatments you have used in the past. Based on all of this he can prescribe a few different treatments that you will usually have to test out on your own. You'll probably come back for a follow-up appointment about a month later.
