Leech Therapy For Acne - #6235
I’ve been struggling with persistent acne on my face and back for years. I’ve tried all kinds of treatments, including medications, creams, and even chemical peels, but the results have been temporary at best. Recently, I heard about leech therapy for acne and got curious. Is leech therapy for acne effective for severe cases, or is it only helpful for mild acne? From what I understand, leech therapy for acne helps by improving blood circulation and reducing toxins. Is this really how it works, and does it help with scars and pigmentation too? I’m a bit nervous about the idea of leeches being applied to my face, so I’d like to know if the process is painful or leaves any marks afterward. How long does a session of leech therapy for acne take, and how many sessions are typically needed to see visible improvements? I’ve also heard that leech therapy for acne might not be suitable for everyone. Are there specific conditions under which it’s not recommended, like sensitive skin or ongoing use of certain medications? If anyone has tried leech therapy for acne, please share your experience. Did it help with active breakouts, or was it more effective for long-term skin health?
