Acne FAQs
What is the main cause of acne?
Acne develops when sebum - any oily substance that lubricates your hair and skin - and dead skin cells plug hair follicles. Bacteria can trigger inflammation and infection resulting in more severe acne. However, there are many reasons why this might be happening to your skin. Getting to the bottom of the root cause can help you properly treat your skin with the right products.
How do I get rid of acne?
Avoid oil-based skincare, suncare and make-up products, and stick to water-based non-comedogenic products, as they are less likely to block your pores any more than they already are. Stick to a simple, acne fighting skincare routine, drink plenty of water and always thoroughly cleanse your skin of make-up, dirt and impurities at night before going to bed.

What is your body lacking when you have acne?
There are a wide range of reasons why you might be suffering from acne. Low levels of antioxidants like Vitamin E and selenium could be attributed to acne symptoms. These antioxidants can protect cells from damage and infections. However, there's no clear proof antioxidants will clear up acne.
How to tell if your acne is hormonal or bacterial?
To differentiate between hormonal and bacterial acne, consider the location and timing of breakouts, as well as the type of lesions. Hormonal acne often appears on the lower face and jawline, flares during hormonal fluctuations, and presents as deep, cystic bumps, while bacterial acne can occur anywhere on the face and body, is less predictable, and includes pustules and blackheads. Your Skin Expert can help you work this out, and recommend the right routine for your skin concern.

Acne is categorised by severity; mild, moderate and severe. You can be diagnosed properly by a specialist,. such as a Skin Expert, Dermatologist or GP. Our Skin Experts are fully-trained and GP-led to diagnose and treat acne symptoms with the appropriate skincare for your skin.
