thankyou|||A dermatologist is a Dr as in they went to medical school. A facialist is probably the same thing as an esthetician (I%26#039;ve never heard that term before) they generally do facials, waxings and other spa treatments, they DID NOT go to medical school although they should have had some professional training from some sort of cosmology school. They can generally give good advice and a facial can be a great thing to help clear up little break outs, I visit a spa and get facials about twice a month. However, I have such severe skin problems that I still need the help of a dermatolgist who can write a Rx for what I need.





Insurance might cover a dermatologist, 99% chance they will not cover the other two as they are not medical professionals.





As for which you need, they can all be expensive, if your skin isn%26#039;t that bad try going to a spa and getting an acne facial, my place charges about $60 for the one hour facial. They can give you advice on what skin care to follow. If after a few months that doesn%26#039;t work then try going for the Dr. Your mom may be right and you may grow out of it but until then try and make her understand how much this is effecting you, if she doesn%26#039;t want to spend the money then save up and pay for it yourself.





As to your friend, she may not be genetically prone to get pimples, it might not be that she goes to see anyone just her DNA. I had a friend in high school like that, perfect skin and she didn%26#039;t do anything, she didn%26#039;t even wash it every night. |||YOu are not the only one who met this problem,I have met this type of problem before.I have good experience here http://www.HealthInsuranceIdeas.info/free-online-health-insurance.htm to solve my similiar problem.
