1. Educational purpose
The information on this website is provided for general education about acne, pigmentation, rosacea and their treatment. It is not a substitute for a personal consultation, examination and diagnosis by a qualified dermatologist.
2. No guaranteed outcomes
Acne and rosacea are chronic, relapsing conditions, and melasma is controlled rather than cured. Treatment results vary from person to person, response is usually judged only after eight to twelve weeks of consistent use, and no procedure erases a scar. Any description of typical courses, timelines or results on this site is general and may not apply to your individual situation.
3. Prescription treatment and monitoring
Some treatments described here, including isotretinoin and hormonal agents, carry serious risks and require medical supervision, pregnancy prevention where applicable, and blood monitoring. Nothing on this site is a prescription, a dose, or a substitute for the monitoring that these treatments require.
4. Seek professional advice
If you have a medical concern about acne, a pigment change, persistent redness, or a mark or scar described here — especially acne that is nodular, painful or scarring, a pigmented lesion that is changing, bleeding or failing to heal, or redness with fever, joint pain or eye involvement — please arrange a consultation with a qualified physician. For a severe reaction to a new medicine, with fever, blistering or mucosal involvement, seek medical attention promptly.
