The Psychological Effects of Acne Vulgaris on Adolescents
Started Feb. 6, 2025
Abstract or project description
I have chosen to focus my project on the topic of acne and how it affects adolescents and their daily life. Acne is a skin disease that is common in adolescents and is something that can severely affect their daily mood. It can also affect an adolescent's body image, self-esteem, and much more. However I have chosen to focus on the effects acne gives to adolescents' daily mood because the teenagers affected by acne can be further diagnosed with depression and other psychological disorders / illnesses. With this topic I have chosen to make a research paper focusing on literature review. The paper would most likely be 6-7 pages and include an introduction, body, and conclusion paragraph. Since the paper would be a literature review I would focus on gaps in the literature that can have inadequate information on the topic. I would also include a paragraph relating to the long-term effects acne vulgaris has.
