YANGJIA CAI.
Nowadays, more and more people are plagued by acne problems. Acne brings negative psychological effects to people, and more importantly, the sub-health anxiety caused by acne. Therefore, I designed a series of standardized procedures for people who want to improve acne, but are unable to change the status quo. Through the APP, I help them start from the self-disciplined life, develop healthy living habits, relieve sub-health anxiety, and Scientific treatment of acne.

Causes of personal acne
People around me have this problem
I had a special anti-acne period.
Acne has become a common problem for young people.

Nearly half of the people even if they know how to cure acne and can not insist on it, not persistence becomes the main problem.
Most people know how to managing acne but not clear，and haven't had any continuous treatment.
Attitude
I learned about people's attitudes towards acne both online and offline, conducted some surveys, and came to the following conclusions and analysis.
The majority of people have strong dissatisfaction with acne, try means to solve it, and eager to know more about the common sense of it.
More than half of people feel helpless for acne and have the idea to give up treatment
A minority of people have no sensitivity to acne.
Persistence
I thought about the phenomenon that people cannot insist on their therapy, and I did some research.
Can you insist on it if you have the correct methods?

The flower will fade someday in future, just like the acne on the face.The anxiety that acne gives us will eventually pass.
Flower has a good moral, acne always gives a person the impression of unaesthetic.

Reflection
Reflecting on the future development of the project, I recognize the need to enhance user engagement by adding more interactive elements to the game. This will make the characters more vivid and interesting. Using animated memes to express information text can make communication more dynamic and appealing. Incorporating encouragement and motivational features during user interactions will help maintain engagement and drive. Additionally, providing specific explanations for each scientific project will enhance educational value and user understanding. These improvements will not only make the user experience more enjoyable but also foster a deeper connection and appreciation for the scientific efforts involved. This forward-looking approach highlights the importance of continuous innovation and user-centric design in the project.
