I finally paid a visit to the dermatologist when I was in the Philippines. I always thought that going to the dermatologist is expensive. I had a friend who paid like a thousand baht per visit to the dermatologist. But when I talked to my cousin whose skin cleared off after visiting the doctor, I was convinced to go to her clinic too. She assured me that the consultation fee was not expensive and I didn’t have to go on a regular basis since she will just prescribe some medicine and topical solutions.
And true enough, I only paid 400 pesos for consulation fee and the medicine and creams she prescribed can actually be bought anywhere – even here in Thailand.
It has been almost 3 weeks now since I took the medicine and cream and I can see a lot of improvement on my face. I really had major break outs and acne before this. So, I’m just so thankful!
Here’s what she prescribed:
Doxcycyline 2 times a day for 1 month
Stefiel facial wash
Ben Zac cream on pimple area in the morning
Adapalene cream at night
And guess what, when I checked at Boots here in Thailand, the antibiotic and creams are so much cheaper here compared with the price in the Philippines.
