Acne is never just about the skin! Because it’s so visible - it affects your confidence, identity and how you show up in the world!

In this episode of Beyond the Bleed, we welcome Amanda (she/her), a passionate dermal clinician who is such a wealth of knowledge when it comes to skin, to help you navigate the overwhelming (and often isolating) world of skin - particularly acne.


In this episode you’ll learn:

  • The difference between dermal clinicians vs dermatologists vs beauticians in treatment of your acne
  • Things she wishes everyone knew before they tried the latest skincare products or fads (I’m looking at you beef tallow & Korean skincare!)
  • Common misconceptions and myths around skin health and acne treatments
  • How, for successful acne treatment, you need to delve beyond just the surface - the importance of the gut: skin connection
  • The emotional impact of having acne - how to support yourself when it feels like all hope is lost
  • Effective treatment for scarring and overall skincare


If you’re currently feeling frustrated, hopeless and stuck feeling like your skin is working against you - tune on in to hear how Dermal Clinicians 🤝 Naturopaths could be the solution back to your freedom.
