Skin Concerns

Acne

Acne causes breakouts ranging from mild blackheads to deep, painful cysts. It can appear at any age, but hormones, oil production, and bacteria are the most common drivers. Your specific type and triggers determine the right treatment approach.

What You Can Do For Acne

Maintain a gentle cleansing routine twice daily with a non-comedogenic cleanser. Avoid touching your face throughout the day. Use oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturizers and sunscreen. Consider over-the-counter treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for mild breakouts.

Why Acne Develops

Acne develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Hormonal fluctuations, particularly during puberty, menstruation, or stress, increase sebum production. Bacteria (C. acnes) thrive in these clogged pores, triggering inflammation. Genetics also play a significant role in determining your skin's susceptibility.

How to Recognize It

Blackheads and whiteheads on the face, chest, or back
Red, tender bumps that may cluster together
Pus-filled spots that rupture and spread easily
Firm, painful lumps beneath the skin surface
Deep cysts that leave dark marks or scars
Persistent oiliness with visibly enlarged pores
