영작

Since it’s winter now, the weather has been getting dry. Not sure if it’s the reason or just because I’ve often touched my face, there are few pimples on my face. I had usually tried to take it out, but since it really makes me painful, so I don’t try it anymore.

Since it’s winter now, the weather has gotten really dry. has gotten / has become 이 변화를 나타냄 (전에는 그렇지 않았는데 지금은 그렇다)

I’m not sure if that’s the reason or if it’s just because I’ve been touching my face a lot, but I’ve gotton a few pimples on my face. have been touching … a lot 이 더 자연스럽고 구어체같음. I’ve gotten a few pimples → 최근에 생겼다는 뉘앙스 전달

I used to try to pop them, but it hurt so much that I don’t do that anymore. pop / squeeze 라고 함. since, so 같이 쓰면 과잉이라 so 만 남김 I don’t do that anymore → I’ve stopped doing that 명확하게 그만뒀다. → I avoid doing that now 의식적으로 피한다.

Actually, my face has been clearer than before I got treatment from the dermatology clinic when I was 19 years old. When I was a high school student, I hadn’t kept healty life. I couldn’t have slept early and I had got lots of stress due to CSAT. The more I got stress, the more pimples I had. So right after CSAT, I visited the clinic to treat my pimples and erase the acne scars on my face. I even remember what the doctor said at that point. He told me my pimple severity was 5 level out of 6 and I sholud’ve visited earlier. I started getting treatment there and it was really scary and painful. To reduce my pimples, they extracted those pimples, but I wanted to scream whenever they did that. I even cried in the first time. Also, to peel off the corneous layer of my face, they literally scrubbed my face by strong power and a rough towel. I felt like I grinded by the car riding on the highway in 100km/h.

Actually, my skin has been much clearer than it was before I got treatment at a dermatology clinic when I was 19. my skin has been in much better condition → 전체적 상태 말할 때 my skin has improved a lot → 좋아진 변화에 초점 my complexion has really cleared up → complexion 은 피부 톤/상태 포함한 느낌

Back in high school, I didn’t live a very healthy lifestyle.

I couldn’t go to bed early, and I was under a lot of stress because of the CSAT. couldn’t have slept early 과거 가정법 느낌이라 부자연스러움. I was really stressed out I was dealing with a lot of pressure.

The more stressed I was, the more pimples I got. was stressed / felt stressed 가 자연스러움. The more stressed I felt, the worse my acne got. The more pressure I was under, the more my skin broke out.

So right after the CSAT, I went to the clinic to treat my acne and get rid of the acne scars on my face. treat my acne 가 일반적 표현 get rid of the scars 가 자연스러움 reduce my acne scars fade my acne scars

I still remember what the doctor said back then. 과거를 회상할 때는 back then 사용이 더 자연스러움 I can still recall what the doctor said back then. I still remember exactly what he told me.

He told me my acne severity was level 5 out of 6 and that I should have come earlier. level 5 out of 6 come in earlier 를 더 많이 씀. should have come to the clinic earlier shouldn’t have waited so long to see a doctor.

To reduce my pimples, they extracted them one by one, and I wanted to scream every time they did it. one by one → 실제 시술 느낌 잘 전달 every time they did it 이 좀 더 감정이 살아 있음. they removed them → 보다 일반적이고 부드러움 they manually extracted them → 피부과 시술 느낌을 아주 정확히 말할 때

I even cried the first time in 불필요. I actually cried during my first session. I even ended up crying the first time.

They also peeled off the outer layer of my skin by scrubbing my face really hard with a rough towel. really hard / very hard 가 자연스러움.

I felt like my face was being ground against a car going 100km/h on the highway. 수동태로 바꿈 going 100km/h on the highway 가 자연스러움 It felt like my face was being sandpapered → 사포로 문지르는 느낌 I felt like my skin was being scraped off → 강한 통증/자극

During the period, I was reluctant to visit there because the treatment was always painful! But after that, my skin had been obviously getting better, and finally, the pimples barely came up when the treatment was almost done. Until this winter, I have rarely experienced pimples on my face. As a result, it was helpful for me to have the clearer skin. If I didn’t endured that pains, I couldn’t have had the ordinary skin and face. I’d really appreciate the doctor saying my skin should have be taken care of.

During that period, I was always reluctant to go because the treatment was so painful. 병원에 가는 건 visit 보다 go 가 훨씬 자연스럽다. hesitant to go → 조금 망설이는 느낌 didn’t really want to go → 아주 직설적이고 캐주얼함.

But afterward, my skin obviously got better, and by the end of the treatment, I hardly ever got new pimples. I almost never got new pimples. new pimples rarely appeared (좀 더 formal)

Until this winter, I rarely had any breakouts. 피부 이야기에서는 breakouts 를 자주 사용 (여드름이 한 번에 좀 나는 현상) acne flare-ups → 갑자기 심해지는 느낌

In the end, the treatment really helped me have clearer skin. In the long run, the treatment was really worth it → 결국에는 받을 가치가 있었다. Looking back, the treatment helped my skin a lot.

If I hadn’t endured that pain, I don’t think I would have the “normal” skin I have now. put up with that pain → 참아냈다 느낌 gone through that pain → 힘든 과정을 겪었다는 느낌

I’m still really grateful to that doctor for telling me that my skin needed proper care. I’m really thankful that he told me my skin needed proper care I really appreciate his advice about taking care of my skin.

As I still have few pimples due to the dryness, I’m going to drink lots of water. Otherwise, I’ll easily get acne. To prevent the situation, I should start the appropriate action from now on.

Now that I have a few pimples again because of the dry weather, I’m going to drink plenty of water. I’m going to make sure I drink enough water I’m planning to stay really hydrated → 건강/피부 관리 느낌

Otherwise, I’ll probably start breaking out more. probably 를 넣어 말투를 부드럽게

To prevent that, I should start taking care of my skin properly from now on. To prevent that / To prevent it 정도로 씀
