Depicted is a 21-year-old amateur bodybuilder who arrived at a clinic in Dusseldorf, Germany with severe acne on his chest and upper back.He was a constant user of anabolic-androgenic steroids, of which acne is a side effect -- as is damaged sperm and shrunken testicles, both of which he also possessed.

Now this is just off-putting and, quite frankly, gross. The second picture doesn't even look like acne...it looks like a severe burn victim. This obviously has to be an extreme case, because we all know there are many athletes who use steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. My guess is that while this graphic look at what can happen is enough to make someone second guess using steroids, many young athletes will still choose to use them for the boost they give.
