Brilio.net - Acne usually occurs when the pores of the skin are clogged by excess oil, dead skin cells, and dirt. Although it generally occurs in teenagers, acne can also be experienced by adults due to various factors such as hormones, stress, or the use of inappropriate cosmetic products.
Not only does it affect your appearance, acne can also leave marks that are difficult to remove, such as black spots or scars, which take a long time to heal.
One of the biggest challenges in treating acne is finding the right and effective treatment. Everyone has different skin types, so a product or method that works for one person may not work for another.
Some acne treatments also take a long time to show results, so patience and consistency are needed. Many people often feel frustrated when trying various products without significant results. Not a few also experience side effects such as dry skin, irritation, or acne that gets worse after doing certain treatments.
Like the story shared by a TikTok user with the account name @risma_kencana. Through her upload, she shared her struggle to recover from acne, by doing beauty treatments. Instead of getting better, the results were actually zero.

"I'd rather be diligent with my skincare routine and change my lifestyle, the treatment is really tiring, not to mention the pain," she said in the caption of the upload, which briliobeauty.net quoted on Thursday (3/10).
At the beginning of the video, the account owner named Risma revealed that she doesn't like facial treatments. Not without reason, it was expressed because every time she finished doing a facial treatment, her skin always became red and sore. Not only that, her face also became more sensitive until new acne appeared.

"The next day a new pimple grew," he said.
Worse still, the acne on her face got worse until it was painful and looked like it was festering. In fact, after a week of treatment, her facial condition did not improve. In fact, she routinely did facial treatments 4 times a month to deal with the acne on her face.

For that reason, Risma finally decided to stop doing treatments at beauty clinics. She also chose to focus on changing her lifestyle and using suitable skincare. However, Risma admitted that she did not really know why she was not compatible with the beauty treatments she did.
"Maybe it depends on the treatment I took, or my skin is stubborn. What's clear is that it didn't help me with my acne, it's still like this. It's really tiring," she concluded.

Through Risma's experience, it is important to know that not all beauty treatments are suitable for everyone. This is because everyone has a different skin type, so you need to be careful when choosing a beauty treatment or skincare product to use.
