Process
I began by contemplating what information to display in my infographics. Based on the survey, I decided it was important to tackle misconceptions of skin conditions as well as highlight the challenges faced by patients with skin conditions, such as mental issues and discrimination.
The scope of the infographics was also limited to acne, eczema and psoriasis as after reading through articles, these are considered the most common skin conditions and patients of these disease are vulnerable towards discrimination and mental health issues.
The information was adapted from

https://www.medicaldaily.com/skin-diseasestigma-quality-life-376999
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-psoriasis-stigma/people-with-psoriasis-often-face-stigma-discrimination-idUSKCN1LU1ZM
The information in this infographic was arranged ineffectively and needed a more dynamic and better layout.
Below are some illustrations for the infographics:
For this new draft, the mental health issues were highlighted instead of the numerical statistics to highlight the severity of the issues. After consulting, I had to change the layout of the information.
