About Acne

Your skin sheds dead cells and produces oil from the moment you are born. Your hormone balance affects the rate at which you produce oil and at which your skin sheds dead skin cells, and it changes throughout your life. Acne happens when these natural processes are thrown off-balance.

Clearing Up Acne Misconceptions

Acne is not caused by anything you're doing – what you eat, how often you wash your face or work out – but by a combination of factors at work far beneath the surface of your skin.

The Secret: Control and Prevent

There's still no cure for acne, with or without a prescription. The secret to controlling acne is PREVENTION – stopping the formation of acne before it becomes a visible pimple. To avoid the risk of permanent scars, it's important to treat acne as soon as the first signs appear. Even after blemishes disappear, you usually must continue to use an effective acne treatment to help keep new blemishes from forming. Just like brushing your teeth helps prevent cavities, a daily skin care routine helps prevent breakouts.

Tips on helping to control and prevent acne

Help your body win the fight against acne by giving it what it needs to stay strong and healthy. Follow these simple daily rules and you may find everyone sees your good health reflected on your face!

Nourish

A balanced diet can help your skin fight breakouts. While most foods don’t contribute to acne, recent studies show dairy and some shellfish may. Try to avoid any foods that make you break out.

In general, choose fresh, unprocessed foods from all four groups and drink at least eight glasses of water every day, or more when you exercise.

Cleanse

To maintain a clear complexion, stick with a daily skin care routine. Gently wash your face twice a day to remove excess oil, bacteria and dead skin cells. Avoid overwashing, which dries out your skin and causes it to produce even more oil.

Protect

While small amounts of sun exposure may seem to improve acne at first, sunbathing actually dries your skin, causing it to produce more oil and dead cells: the ideal environment for blemishes. Avoid excess sun exposure and wear at least SPF 15 sunscreen every day, even if it's cloudy.

Rest

A good night's sleep (7-8 hours) can do wonders for your complexion and immune system, which helps fight infection so your lesions clear up more quickly.

Exercise

Your skin benefits from an increase in blood flow and blood oxygen level achieved by exercise. If you are prone to body acne, wear loose-fitting cotton clothing when exercising.

Prevent

It’s best to wear as little makeup as possible, because even those advertised as oil-free and non-comedogenic can clog pores. Make sure to remove all makeup before you exercise, or before you go to sleep.

Relax

When you become tense, sweat glands in your face tend to produce more oil. It's important to take time every day to relax – read a book, take a bath, practice yoga, or do whatever makes you feel happy and calm.
