Acne breakouts are usually caused by excess oil production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. Hormonal fluctuations, stress, and diet can also play a role in triggering or worsening acne.
To prevent acne from worsening, it’s important to keep your skin clean by gently washing twice a day. Avoid picking or squeezing pimples to prevent scarring. Using products labeled "non-comedogenic" (won't clog pores) and managing stress can also help.
Over-the-counter products containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or adapalene are commonly used to treat mild acne. These work to reduce inflammation, clear clogged pores, and kill acne-causing bacteria.
If you’ve been using over-the-counter treatments for several weeks without seeing improvement, or if your acne is severe, painful, or leaving scars, it might be time to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and stronger treatment options.
Yes, lifestyle changes like staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, managing stress, and not touching your face can all contribute to clearer skin. Regularly changing pillowcases and avoiding heavy makeup can also help reduce breakouts.
