The Cost of Acne Treatments - Is it Worth It?

Having pimples and zits on your face and other parts of your body is not only unappealing, but can also be expensive if you are looking to get rid of them.
Like they say, beauty comes with a price...
literally.
People from teens to adults spend hundreds of dollars on treatments every year to get rid of and ultimately prevent future breakouts.
With economic times being hard, worrying about how much it is going to cost to get a clean face seems irrational; unless, of course, it is worth it.
So the question is, is it worth it? To spend all that money for a clean face, or to spend all that money wondering IF you will actually get the results you desire? Maybe, maybe not.
That is for you to decide, but here's a little insight:
  • most products to get rid of breakouts are $20 to $60.
  • Some cheaper products are available, but do not prevent zits and may leave the face feeling dehydrated
  • expensive brands only last monthly and usually require subscriptions, but work just as well as cheaper brands and help to prevent against more breakouts
  • face masks and creams ordered off of infomercials may work the same as a more expensive brands you find at the store, without the monthly subscriptions
  • cost/benefit analysis is important in determining if you are willing to give up a certain amount of money and time to work at having a clear complexion
In terms of worthiness, many individuals seem to think that spending a good amount of money on something that works is a great investment.
The choice is up to you, your face, and your wallet!
