Acne is a skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It often appears on the face, neck, chest, and back. While acne can be frustrating to deal with, there are steps you can take to help prevent and treat it.

🌋 Acne = clogged hair follicles with oil and dead skin cells

👕 Avoid tight clothes to prevent irritation

👐 Don't touch or scratch face to prevent bacteria transfer

💦 Use gentle cleanser & sunscreen to protect skin

😴 Get enough sleep to reduce acne formation

🍔 Avoid greasy/oily foods to reduce occurrence

💊 OTC products (benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid) can help mild acne.These products work by breaking up comedones and opening clogged pores.

🩺Emollients, cleansers, and skin protectives can also help to soothe and protect the skin from further irritation.

🩺 Severe cases may need prescription meds, hormonal therapies, or professional treatments

🤝 If OTC products and prescription medications are not effective, your dermatologist may recommend professional treatments like chemical peels, laser therapy, or extraction. It's important to work with a dermatologist to find the best treatment plan for your individual needs.
