hey Everyone,
In a prior post entitled “The Epidemic Misconception of Rosacea”, I mentioned that many highly motivated people with a classic presentation of rosacea are still failing the standard of medical care.
Today, a thoughtful client has contributed to the movement with before and after photos of her long standing Rosacea. Please show this video to your doctor to get everyone up to speed on what is now possible beyond the cookbook algorithm of metronidazole, tetracycline, and other Rx topicals.
Original email inquiry:
Hi Dr Neal,
I wonder if you have success at treating rosacea like you do with acne.
I’m 51 and have had continual rosacea for about 3 years. Looking back, I remember bouts of ‘weird acne’ that I now know were rosacea. When my son was born (now 19) I remember a patch on my chin.
It’s getting worse. When it began a few years ago, I would get a couple of new spots (on cheekbones or nose), then have a few quiet days, then a couple new spots, a few quiet days etc. Now there are new spots every day and the places on my cheeks which are prone to rosacea are getting larger. I’m starting to get spots along my upper lip. I used to only get spots under my nose on the right side, but now it’s moving over to the left. A patch is starting on my jawline.
I eat well (organic vegetables juiced every day, nearly vegan diet, minimal sugar), meditate, exercise all the time (xcountry skiing, road bicycling, Bikram yoga (I had rosacea before I went to Bikram, so it’s not the heat), hiking, regular yoga) ..I don’t know how I could improve my lifestyle. Well, I do eat chips sometimes!!
I’ve tried special soaps, jojoba oil, Rosacea-Ltd-III mineral conditioners, essential oil therapy, and am now using a 1% Dalacin antibiotic treatment, all to no avail.
Can you help? Thank you so much
ps I also get the associated blepharitis on and off.
She used the Mild Starter Kit.
Thanks to her generous contribution, the movement continues today.

To follow the movement:
Another amazing client has decided to share her prior struggle and recent victory with us today.
Enjoy..!
Her video was packed with emotions that are commonly seen in this practice.
I transcribed some of them below to further illustrate her journey:
Day 1:
“I’ve been dealing with acne for about 7 years”
“when I wash my face, it gets very dry, but then throughout the day it gets oily”
“I can’t have a conversation with somebody. I feel like this is all they are looking at”
“this shouldn’t be what defines me”
“I just washed my face…, I bleed. It’s terrible”
“I’ve tried everything from proactiv, I’ve gone to the dermatologist. prescribed pills, creams, I’ve had facials”
“I’ve done everything”
Week 2:
“I noticed even the first day it was already cleared up, it was less irritated, and less inflamed”
“Everything has gone down so much. Even people around me say, wow, your skin has cleared so much”
“I’ve never had anything work this fast. It’s really great”
Week 3:
“my skin looks really great. the majority of it has gone down, even the scars are going away”
“nothing I can’t deal with”
“It looks really good”
“I went out this weekend, didn’t have to photoshop anything”
“Ahhh! I’m so happy now, you have no idea…”
Week 4:
(317 bumps down to 4 bumps)
“It’s amazing, oh my gosh”
Week 5:
“my skin is really smooth”
“Its actually this time of the month I would get really, like ten new ones in a day”
“thats the only one I have. everything else is clear”
“you can kind of see where they all were but it healed up really nice. there’s no dents or anything”
We thank her for this caring contribution to the movement.
Are you going to share your story to help others?
This shared project represents a new movement in medicine and healing that will eventually spread to all other ailments. Witness as it transforms our culture over the next few years. It’s been amazing…

The really problem for other people is language barrier.
hey Patrick,
there is a plan in place for this challenge. hope all is doing well with your doctors over there.
-Dr Neal
This Home Version video is for those who still can’t believe what is going on in this medical project. The level of resolution has been an important detail in breaking the stranglehold of hopelessness with this condition. For this reason, I recommend watching this video on the most high resolution screen you have access to. You can try full screen, as is, or partial enlargement with your own zoom to get the perfect focus and detail on your computer.
If anyone is still hopeless after watching this video, please check out the crossfit section of the blog. It will get your energy flowing and your mind focused.
Notice in the video that there is:
no dryness from the treatment
no bumps
no irritation
faded marks
and an incredibly healthy looking skin with some former wear and tear to soften in time.
Please show this to your doctor if he or she is not familiar with this innovation in treating acne without oral medications.
here’s to what is possible with any challenge in life,
-Dr. Neal
i have almost the same problems but mine is a lil bad but almost the same
How many of those who have purchased and tried the program have succeeded? What is the rate there? There are a lot of parameters listed for those that qualify as actual patients in order to validate the 100% success rate. While impressive nonetheless, it does raise questions about the success of the program because it could be not that those who did not meet those objectives are not good patients but rather that the program just did not work for them and these are excuses why it did not work in order to rationalize a 100% success rate. With all the marketing schemes out there, any reasonable person would wonder this.
hey ml,
I”ll have this conversation with you publicly in case any others were wondering the same thing. Feel free to comment back until there is complete understanding and resolution one way or another.
I’ll copy what you wrote and comment in to address every thought:
“How many of those who have purchased and tried the program have succeeded? ”
100% as mentioned in the post http://www.acnepractice.com/blog/2011/04/18/faq-what-is-success-rate-of-the-home-version/
“What is the rate there?”
100%
“There are a lot of parameters listed for those that qualify as actual patients in order to validate the 100% success rate.”
(for those reading, see link above)
While impressive nonetheless, it does raise questions about the success of the program because it could be not that those who did not meet those objectives are not good patients
it’s not questionable or subjective or in any way here. The program comes with a 27 page manual that specifically outlines the rigid emotional rules of program. The primary one being that if a client is concerned, they are expected to ask for assistance in a time-sensitive manner. Those who follow these emotional rules without bending them or negotiation find their way to victory. Those who negotiate, bend, or break rules that have been in place for over 5 years, effectively self-remove themselves from this particular program. Fortunately, there is an email record of all emails which allows me to review any case. After careful review, I have found that anyone who tenaciously and repeatedly asks for assistance in a time-sensitive manner has found victory in 100% of cases.
If someone says they “failed”, I simply search them up and evaluate their participation in asking for assistance. After years of doing this, it becomes very obvious who is committed to being coached and who is unwilling to ask for help. It’s a common behavioral problem that is seen with many chronic conditions. There are strict rules here to extract these predictable behaviors from the experience here. It’s one of the many innovations of this new paradigm of medicine.
“but rather that the program just did not work for them and these are excuses why it did not work in order to rationalize a 100% success rate. With all the marketing schemes out there, any reasonable person would wonder this.”
see above. that blog post you are referring to was not an act of marketing. it was a report.
Please try not to associate this new case study driven practice with the last 30 years of acne infomercials or cosmetic “marketing” They were using makeup and pro lighting in the after shots. It becomes obvious when you zoom in.
Without having the instruction manual in front of you to know the rigidity of the program, I can see how this report can be confusing. In general, everyone should know that when a client joins here, their every action, inaction, and emotion is being monitored every single day via email or lack thereof. If a client is concerned and not emailing for assistance for many days in a row, they have simply been self-removed. After recognizing their own delay and mistake, all clients are welcome to restart their own program when they are ready to follow this program as it was laid down many years ago.
hope this helps clear up any confusion,
-Dr. Neal
While I was putting this video together and thinking about how this movement is taking over prior pessimism for chronic ailments, I realized this is going to be the last generation of people who become victimized with a lifetime of active acne.
Think about this:
Throughout the history of this particular ailment, it was the ongoing lack of real proof and/or fear of side effects that would emotionally corner a suffering individual into the trap of doom and gloom.
With this expansive gallery showing up in HD, this generation will be the last to think their case is “special” or untreatable. This will be the last generation to site hormonal problems, mental problems, liver problems, PCOS, genetics, accutane failure, diet, stress, or any other scapegoat to prove that they are doomed. Any thoughts of hopelessness, helplessness, or pessimism have finally been overcome by an expansive gallery that shows the irrefutable reality that all acne is beatable. (this has become tangibly irrefutable)
Think about it…
This will be the last generation of those who suffer endlessly and needlessly. In future generations, those with acne will just quickly get to work on it without heavy emotion, fear, or inhibition. Not to say there is a cure for anything chronic, only that chronic ailments can always be completely inactivated, emotionally healed from, and maintained.
Up until this point, it took passionate practitioners enormous amounts of energy to beg patients to see the light of hope. The reason I started taking the videos in the office 4 years ago was because I was getting completely exhausted trying to talk people off the ledge of hopelessness. After going nuts trying to verbally explain what is possible using passion and conviction, I found myself worn down and getting imbalanced myself. I thought, “there has to be a better way to convince people of what is possible….” and the video project was born.
The reason it’s so difficult to help someone who feels hopeless is because this type of “convincing” people with heavy conviction has lost its luster after witnessing so many adamant people “claiming” different things. After 30 years of infomercials, we’ve become somewhat immune to an enthusiasm of achieving great skin. The combination of exuberance plus an after shot with makeup and lighting hiding the ongoing activity was enough to create mass disillusionment. Once it set in, this powerful disillusionment would then need to be unwound by the next passionate practitioner. You can imagine how exhausting this can get and can possibly grant some sympathy for your overworked dermatologist who has completely exhausted their energy reserves.
In order to make sure this is the last generation who lives in doom and gloom with acne, the movement continues today with an amazing progress report from a young women named Marie who was compassionate enough to share her intimate story with you all…
If you have been reading the emotional section of the blog, you would have come across my philosophies about living and self expression. As I was reading Marie’s youtube page, I was drawn to her explanation of how and why she expresses her own humanity through her art. I thought it was beautiful and wanted to share it with you:
“Creative expression is a need for survival; for me it is greater than passion or love. I like to refer to my creations as experiential art as this need originated from discoveries I have made through life’s toughest lessons. This is my therapy; a way to untangle the complexities of being me. Confronting truths and being honest to me requires courage, determination, discipline and heart. Awareness and acknowledgement, taking risks and learning create a nurturing environment for me to be healthy emotionally psychologically and physically. I believe it to be miraculous that I have been given the chance to continue on journeying and living; there is freedom in ‘love’ and I choose to connect, give, support, and share with you and the world my intimate life experiences.”
-Marie Tomeoki (the girl from the video above)
Hope this blog is helping people navigate their way out of the maze of hopelessness.
be well,
-Dr.Neal

hello,
see the 3D scar videos on the home page to see the type of healing that is possible with time and a good home routine. 3D scars don’t begin to soften up until all the acne is inactivated first.
Take care,

Dear Dr Neal,
Thank you so much for helping our whole family.You see,when one member of a family is suffering from acne,we can all be affected.We have SO MUCH hope now and Emily wants to do all the right things. She started on Saturday.Upon waking Sunday morning,she said “Mom,come here!” I thought,oh no something is wrong… When I walked in the room she was smiling and said “look at my face” She is so happy!
