Abstract

The study examines the impact of acne on women's use of social media and dating apps, focusing on photo activity. Over 1700 women participated in the survey, with most reporting feelings of embarrassment and low self-confidence due to acne. The research highlights how acne influences women's online presence, with many avoiding selfies or using filters to modify their appearance. The study underscores the importance of support and management for women with acne to enhance self-acceptance and quality of life. [Extracted from the article]
