Face IT provides support and advice for anyone who has worries or is unhappy because they have a different or unusual appearance (what we call a visible difference). Conditions that can affect appearance are:

• Skin conditions for example, vitiligo, ichthyosis, eczema, acne, psoriasis or other conditions that affect the texture of the skin such as neurofibromatosis and epidermolysis bullosa
• Scarring from accidents, burns or surgery
• Alopecia caused by a range of conditions and illnesses
• Medical treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy
• Conditions from birth, for example birthmarks, cleft lip or other craniofacial conditions

Face IT has been designed by experts in the field of appearance psychology and people with a range of conditions that affect appearance who understand the types of worries and problems you might be experiencing.

There are 8 sessions in Face IT. Each session has different exercises and activities and will take 45 – 60 minutes to complete. We’d like you to complete 1 session per week.
