Growing Stronger Together – Acne with Dr. Kacie Denton
What is a medical condition that nearly 90% of teenagers deal with but is seldom talked about? Acne
It’s not just cosmetic either. Acne plays a huge role in adolescent self-esteem and social interactions even if it is not discussed.
What causes acne? How is it treated? What are some acne dos and don’ts? Can I eat chocolate? Will washing my face five times a day cure this affliction?
Learn how to win friends and influence pimples in a discussion with Dr. Kacie Denton, Chief Resident of Pediatrics with East Tennessee State University.
During our Teens on Tuesday's segments with host, Dr William Dodd, learn more about ways to support adolescents' well-being during their journey to adulthood.
