Hi,

My friend all I can advice you is to be happy and confident and believe me that is the best thing one can do. When I was younger, I had some light acne everynow and then. I was very sad and depressed and spent most of the time hiding from people. I was buying all those expensive stuff that showed on TV and said to be magical ! All they said was just lies! I then decided I will restore my confidence and just accepted what I got, believe me it worked and a few months after the thing has cleared up on it's own.

Confidence Confidence Confidence.

Best of Luck

you can call the physician referral services at cedars-sinai medical center https://referrals.cedars-sinai.edu/ and UCLA medical center Physician Referral Service for help finding an affiliated dermatologist whom you can consult about your condition when you arrive. these hospitals are the best in the city, and among the best in the country.

Please don't bul**it the biggest bu***** on the planet.
Smallpox has been almost globally eradicated with the exception if roaming tribes.
If you have holes in your face this is a result of ACNE, usually caused by poor hygiene.
Wash more ..eat less cr*p and get out in the sun a little.
Prolonged exposure to computer screens is NOT harmful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm with katenik. Advancing a benefit of a doubt, I think chicken pox was the illness and was confused in the translation.
