First Time
On Monday I am going to see the dermatologist at 2pm. I know most of you will laugh at me (because my skin is super clear), but I've had an annoying blemish for a couple weeks and I am shelling out to have it zapped. It's my first time ever seeing this type of doctor and I am a bit nervous/excited. She is excellent, from what I hear, but I am already not a huge fan of ANY type of doctor. I am looking forward to the results and if I get any helpful tips along the way I will be sure to pass them along!
PS - where is everyone? :-(
Update
So my appointment was yesterday. The doctor came in, looked at it, and knew right away what it was. She said I had a "post inflamatory macule" and gave me some Retin A Micro cream to put on it. I have to put this on for 4 weeks and she said it should clear up back to normal without leaving any type of scar. Granted 4 weeks is a long time, but I can handle it. So for now I am covering it up with makeup and doing what the doctor said! It's nice to know it will go away and I don't have cancer.
Anyway, that's my update. ;-)

I actually like the dermatologist. I like to take off all of my clothes and stand in the little room pointing to all of my moles and confirming that none of them have secretly become cancerous while I was busy doing something else. You know how they turn on you.
Good luck!
What's a post inflamatory macule?
Who the heck knows! Google it! lol
