Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi everyone,So recently I finally broke down and went to the dermatologist for the first time, after years of suffering from acne and PIH. The visit was so strange and weird that I am left feeling very uncomfortable and dreading my follow-up appointment. The doctor was rude and condescending, and I felt like I was being "negged" by a bad pick-up artist.Some examples: Within the first couple mins of the visit, he asked about my ethnicity, demanded to know why my parents hadn't taught me their native language, then went on a mini-rant about those types of parents (I'm a biracial girl).He asked me if I still lived with my parents, and when I said no he said, "And you're single, right? You don't have a boyfriend." I said I was engaged and he looked at me in disbelief, then asked if my fiancé ever tells me not to pick at my pimples.He asked me about my routine, then made fun of it saying it all doesn't work. Obviously, that's why I'm here! He actually made fun of my skin for peeling on low-dose retinols.He asked me for my age again, and when I said I was 29, he pointed to a grey hair on my head and asked "so what's this then"He prescribed doxycycline, and scoffed when I asked about interactions and whether I could drink while on it. "Drink, like alcohol? Just don't chase your pills with it."I don't know what to think. Is this just a typically awkward doctor encounter? I feel very wrong about it and like I should tell someone, but I don't want to overreact.
