A：Why do you have a Band-Aid on your face? 你脸上为什么贴OK绷?
B：It’s not a Band-Aid, it’s an acne patch. I have a big pimple here, and I’m hoping the patch will make it go away faster.
A：Oh, I haven’t had acne problems since high school. In high schools I had really bad acne.
B：What did you do about it?
A：I bought over-the-counter medicine at the pharmacy. When that didn’t work, I saw a dermatologist regularly and took prescription drugs.
B：Did it help？
A：It helped some, but my acne only completely cleared after high school. Then I had to get laser treatment to get rid of the acne scars.
B：Thanks for sharing. I won’t complain about a single pimple then.
