Severe acne linked to depression

MANILA, Philippines - Whether or not kids are vocal about their acne problems, their suffering is real.  If you’d like to address your teen/s’ acne but don’t know how or where to get it done, there’s SkinTrends, the acne authority. 

While acne may be a very common disease, there is nothing common or ordinary about the suffering of a teenager with severe acne.  A recent study conducted in Turkey, entitled “Disease-specific quality of life is associated with anxiety and depression in patients with acne” by J. Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol, conclusively links acne to clinical depression.  Those who suffer from severe acne are far more likely to experience clinically significant depression (29.5% in those with acne, vs. only 7.9% in those without acne).  The study also links acne closely to a number of psychosocial and psychological disorders, from low self-esteem to inability to make friends and even suicidal ideation.

At SkinTrends, acne treatment is an art; pimple treatments are far less painful and cause far less visible trauma to the skin than at any other clinic.  SkinTrends pimple treatments are affordable and effective.  Best of all, SkinTrends acne treatments are backed by the SkinTrends guarantee:  If you are not acne-free after the prescribed number of treatments, you will receive free sessions. 

This month, SkinTrends is offering free services and procedures with every acne treatment.  To learn about other ongoing SkinTrends promos and to find out if there is a SkinTrends near you, check out its website http://www.skintrends.com.ph/.
