All these things can be either fixed or enhanced for your benefit...acne...my son had it and there is a medication that will make it go away. Long legs...how I would die for them....if you walk slowly and deliberately, it helps...practice in front of the mirror. Play them up with cute ankle socks or nylons. Light makeup can help downplay your cheeks.

Marfans... my ex had that....if you stand up straight and are not so self conscious about your height it seems to help. He used to bend over and it was not very attractive. He racticed good posture by spending time flat against the wall and bending backwards.

acne meds = tried and failed.
marfans = i already walk tall. If i slouch i am still a giant but a giant with a sore back
long legs = extended legnth mens jeans to get legnth. They still look long though.
cheeks= already use light makeup if i wear any at all.
seriously. this is just how i look. i am looking at getting excess skin cut off in the future but not much else i can do. shrug.

Isn't being tall and having long legs a good thing? I guess it depends, how tall you are.
