Setting The Stage For The Next Chapter



hey Everyone,
here’s the new home page video explaining the movement of The Acne Practice:







Here’s a sneak peek at the new dashboard that is being clinically dialed-in to perfection this season.

And here’s the game plan for the release of the fully automated version:


Summer 2012: We will be releasing a beta version of the video communication system with the current email system as a back up if there are any remaining concerns or glitches whatsoever.


2012-2013: We will then observe areas where clients still need Dr. Neal directly and make new detailed videos specifically addressing every loose end and remaining concern. This refinement process will continue until there are zero unresolved concerns. In the future system, our call center will spend time helping clients navigate to the perfect video for their specific situation or concern. We will also create a section of the dashboard called “Request a New Video” which will allow clients to request the creation of new videos.


Fall of 2013: Take on the major project of translating hundreds of videos into multiple languages to prevent needless suffering all over the world.


2013 and beyond: Closely observe the system for anyone who is still struggling, review client dashboards, study loose ends, and add new videos where needed to address any outlying situations or concerns. No one will slip through the cracks who is willing to ask for assistance. That is the basis of the movement here.



These are exciting times.

I’ll be here,
-Dr. Neal

    hey Fiona,
    Sorry to hear that story. Try to understand that acne is a little scary for those who are not familiar with it and try your best to bring out the comedy in the situation. This is a treatable condition. You can find me on the Ask Dr. Neal page if you are ready to go to battle.

    I’ll be here,
    -Dr. Neal

Understanding Dark Marks and Red Marks

When someone gets emotionally distracted by dark marks, it’s not always easy to see or understand the real medical problem that is causing them.

This video should help clear up this situation. Please teach others by sharing this video as this misconception is causing disharmony all over the world.

    This video was a wakeup call for me, l had been thinking about Bootcamp for a while but l had been let down before but this video is such an eye opener. None of the clinics l had been too explained it to me like this so l had no clue l was just doing as l was told doing my part as a patient trusting the professionals. l am so optimistic right now and thank you for your call Dr Neal my own dermatologist who is in the same country as me can’t even be bothered to email or ring but there you are miles away and you can be bothered…thank you =)

  2. R. S. Says:

    Thank you for this video. It has really helped my understanding of why and how dark marks form.

  3. Juan Vasquez Says:

    I’m thinking about getting the starter kit. My skin is dry and oily on some places so I’ll go with the mild kit. What do I use for red marks/dark marks? Do I get an Exfoliating kit along with my starter kit?

    I am currently using Aveda Sky Salon Products, minocyclin once and a while, tooth paste, and baking soda. Before that I would using Proactive. Before proactive I was on Accutane. Before Accutane I was using Clinque. Before Clinque I was using store products.

Dr. Neal’s Opinion: “Accutane”

Hey Everyone,

I’m starting a new video series this week call “Dr. Neal’s Opinion” which will address any and all things I am passionate about including chronic ailments, healthcare, wellness, cultural issues, and anything else I feel strongly about.


The first episode voices my firm stance on the prescription drug Oral Isotretinoin, commonly known as Accutane.

    Hello Dr.

    I would like to congratulate you for this nice web site. I found the information very helpful. My name is andres. I m 35 years old. I had acne since 12 and at age of 16 took Roaccutan for 6 months. think 2 pills a day. It work perfectly and cleanned my skin from acné. Last year i went to see my dermatologist and gave me some cream for seborrehic dermatitis, i use it and since then i started having spots. Then acne came back badly with big spots full of puss. I went to see another dermatologis, and gave me minocin 100 mg and a cream called Rosex, it work fine, after 1 week acne almost was control, my skin dried, and there were no spots for a while. But last christmas it came back again in a really heavy spread, saw my dermatologist a week ago and gave minocin 100mg and rosex again. I m thinking using also Aloe vera or Sabila, what do you think? The doctor said i have rosacea, and doesn t know exactly why do I have acné. I would like to know your opinion about it and what could I do for curing my acne. Also if you have got another way of treatment.

    My skin is white, i have black hair, and also had some problems in my eye, something called Coriorretinopatía central serosa. Some liquid inside my rethine in the macula. Was treated with laser. Is not yet perfect.

    Thanks in advance.
    Andrés

    hey Andres,

    I detail this specific situation in the posts entitled, “troubled skin” and “the epidemic misconception of rosacea” you can use the search box to find them here. The traditional medical system is not yet equipped for this stubborn situation. I know it well because I lived with it for 10 years and am still prone to it without some effort.

    I’ll be in the Ask Dr. Neal section if you need,
    -Dr. Neal

    hi, am an Italian boy and I’m 18 I know you saw the video on the internet and your treatment of me impressed how he managed to solve some serious situations. I do not think I state the only major that has a just cause of acne is getting worse I care and I are leaving small scars. I could get some advice from you even post some of my photos, most would like to know more about his treatment, what is basa and if maybe I could use it and how. thanks

    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!
