All About Acne

Who would have thought that a site called "Acne Central" could have earned a place on my bookmark list? Millions of teens struggle with the personal plague that is acne, but this informative website finally arms them with the resources to fight that pestilence. There's a quick quiz designed to dispel some commonly-held myths about acne. The "Tips and Advice" link provides a quick assessment of your condition and offers guidance on the best course of action. Best of all, "E-Mail a Doc" allows you to ask a question of a real-life dermatologist. (He's also provided an archive of the most commonly-posed questions.) Steer clear of the Acne Glossary, however, if you can't stand looking at full-color pictures of blackheads, nodules, and pustules. I'm not sure what the space-age layout has to do with acne, exactly, but I learned a lot about it just the same.
