British book
, 2002-08-23
This book is by a British dermatologist. Much of the information about drugs and hormones included British brand names, no US brand names. Still, the information about causes and effects is wonderful and easily understood. And the doctor is not afraid to call a zit a zit!

Great at telling me how acne occurs but is not a must buy
, 2001-07-01
This book is a great tool in telling you about acne and some of the myths around it, but it's not a must buy for acne sufferers. What this book did tell me was that acne was not something I had to live with. It can be stopped through medication, and this book was the final kick in the direction of seeing a dermatologist. For those of you who already know how it occurs, and a lot of the myths around acne, you may not need this but I would still recommend--there will be something in here you did not know before. For those of you who don't know much about acne I would definitely advise you to buy it.
The best thing that I got out of the book was pretty simple. Acne isn't neccesarily something you grow out of. Some people have it throughout there lives. There is no use in simply suffering through it thinking it it will eventually go away. Doing that risks permanent scarring of your face which may never go away. Treat it before the scarring becomes bad. This book pushed to see a dermatologist and get prescriptions for acne medication.
So in closing this book doesn't have the secrets to curing your acne(and it doesn't pretend it does) but the information in it is the best compilation of information on acne, it's causes, and it's treatments, that I know of. This review comes from a moderate acne sufferer who has had acne for the past 5 years.

Highly recommend it!
, 2000-10-14
I am a licensed esthetician, and I love this book! It's small but packed with information on acne causes and treatments. I recommend it to clients, friends, other estheticians. This book has helped me many a time in my practice, as it gives me simple ways to explain things to my clients. Excellent (and not often heard) infomation on scarring and treatment modalities available for different types of scars. Written in an compassionate, straightforward manner... the way you would wish your doctor to talk to you!

I liked it because it didn't use all these technical terms like some of those books. THe advice it gave was good advice. I'm glad I got it and I already use it a lot.
