History of my skin:
Got my first black head in 4th grade. Can you imagine that crum? Ugh, not only was I picked on for being Asian and poor, I was being picked on for being skinny with zits. Not to mention the fact that I got picked on for being Buddhist!!! Anyways, LOOK AT ME NOW FOOLS!! Wait where was I going? Oh! The joys of my childhood ey? Started to have huge cystic acne at the age of 12. Found a "wonderful" dermatologist who poked, popped, and cut open every cystic acne I had. The scars on the side of my nose and chin will tell you all about it. After he's done with the grossness, or was too lazy to spend extra time popping my volcanoes, he would inject me with Cortisone (steroids). Sometimes he over injected and not only did the acne deflated..my skin kept sinking in. The pockets of scars will tell you the other story. To reverse the effect, I started to get Restylane injections in my face and insurance back then did not believe restylane shots for acne scars was necessary for my "illness". It simply got too expensive to continue.Two years with that guy, and I switched to a second. Hated him just the same, and switched to a lady dermatologist who also suffered from acne. Now, let me tell you how that made a huge difference on my life. She was compassionate, she was caring, and she monitored my skin. After 3 mos with her, she told me I needed the top gun of all acne meds. BAM! Here comes ACCUTANE. Now ACCUTANE is a highly dangerous drug. When you are on it, you have to get monthly blood and pregnancy tests done. I was on it for 6 mos and it was not fun to have to go to the doctor at 16 with your dad to get an exam for birth control ( you must be on it to be on ACCUTANE). I was 17 when my face finally stopped growing giant cysts. I felt good, I felt like I could go to college and be someone new. Freshman year of college was wonderful and I knew life was going to be very positive for me. It wasn't until sophomore year when the effects (depression) of ACCUTANE kicked in. I started to get really depress and my life....started to mean nothing. I was not inspired, or optimistic about life and frankly I did not want to look at my face even if it was clear. I started to hate my face, hate myself, and doubted my self worth. By the end of Sophomore year my face basically went to war. I looked like I was sweating all the time when really, I was just greasy and inflamed. The depression got worse and I got desperate. I found the nearest dermatologist (the lady one was in my old home town). I went in, and I told him "give me ACCUTANE". I knew the risk, I didn't care. I went on it for 3 months this time because my body was familiar to it. After that, my depression got worse. I went to therapy for my issues, and about a year later I started this YouTube channel. Then I started to date my husband, then I started to focus more on the fashion industry instead of Biology and look at all the great things that has happened to me. Well, I also changed my diet. I either eat too much or too little but I don't eat a lot of fast foods or packaged foods. My veggie and fruit intake is fairly high. I learned to run every day because running made me happy. On days when I do get depressed, I result to my Sun lamp ( a little light that mimics day light) to make me feel chipper. I think it took about 3-4 years for me to feel secure about myself. Anyways, there are days when I wish I can trade skin with someone else but then I'm just being selfish. I'm finally at a point in my life where these zits aren't really that important. My family, you guys, and my job is what is important to me. If my skin is clear tomorrow, wonderful. If it doesn't...hey it's something I can joke about. If I scar....well, it's a battle scar and I always tell myself and let everyone else know that at least I came out of that battle winning (Insert Charlie Sheen joke here).--K.L
