Acne and Chinese medicine

Modern times place high demands on all of us, whether it is our skills and abilities or our appearance. A perfect image plays a big role, especially for young people who attach great importance to their appearance, and its imperfection can have psychological effects on them.  It is young people who, in approximately 80% of cases, will go through the experience of acne. Although acne is not a serious medical condition and in most cases will clear up in adulthood, it has a significant impact on the psyche of teenagers. As research commented on in the Dermatology Online Journal shows, acne is associated with anxiety, depression and even suicidal thoughts in young people. Thus, acne is not primarily a major health risk, but secondarily it is.
