After years of research, Acne.org is proud to present the first ever comprehensive guide to all available acne treatments and acne scar treatments, including how well they work, based on all available clinical studies.
Face masks may increase acne by physically irritating the skin. Choose a lightweight, light-colored mask to limit irritation and sweat. The simple, disposible light-blue surgical masks can be a good choice. acne.org/can-wearing-a-…
Is fabric softener safe to use if you are prone to body acne? It's hard to say since fabric softeners don't list their ingredients and often contain fragrances, which might irritate the skin. When possible, forgo fabric softener. acne.org/does-fabric-so…
Acne is a pain, but is there an evolutionary reason for it? Could it be that... 1. It's just leftover from when we were more hairy? 2. It's nature's way of making sure we don't reproduce too early?
You know how you've always heard your skin will get worse before it gets better on retinoids (tretinoin, adapalene, tazarotene)? Not true. 7 of 8 studies show no acne flare. Yeah they're not amazing at clearing acne, but at least no flare. acne.org/will-the-skin-…
When cleansing acne-prone skin, the name of the game is avoiding irritation. Always avoid soap. Instead, choose a gentle liquid cleanser made specifically for the face. And as you cleanse the skin, stay ultra-gentle and use only your bare hands. acne.org/soaps-or-clean…
Ever wondered how exfoliation can help with acne? Here's how. Most important: Chemically exfoliating with glycolic acid or salicylic acid keeps the skin clear better than physically exfoliating with things like rotating brushes or microdermabrasion. acne.org/how-exfoliatio…
Clearing blackheads is a challenge. You can get them removed by a doctor, or Biore strips, but they usually refill after a couple of weeks. The best way to go is to prevent them in the first place with an effective anti-acne regimen. acne.org/how-to-clear-o…
Can hair products contribute to acne? Yup. Especially pomades, brilliantine, and some oils. - Avoid pore-clogging ingredients - Cover hair before bed - Try to keep hair products away from skin acne.org/some-leave-in-…
Sensitive skin has no official medical definition, but is defined as... Itching Burning Stinging Tightness Redness ...after using certain skincare products or being in conditions like wind, cold, and pollution. Half of people claim they have it. acne.org/sensitive-skin…
Gene therapy seems like all the rage, but is gene therapy for acne on the horizon? Not really. Acne is likely caused by multiple genes + other non-genetic factors, and gene therapies so far have treated only diseases with 1 defective gene at their root. acne.org/genetic-treatm…
Tea tree oil is one of the few "natural" acne treatments that should actually show measurable results. Not phenomenal results, but noticable. acne.org/does-tea-tree-…
Are facials good or bad if you have acne? Usually bad. Almost all facials cause physical irritation of the skin, and physical irritation can lead to more acne. If you get one, read this first and make sure you get the right kind. acne.org/is-getting-a-f…
Ensuring adequate levels of vitamin D might help with skin health and acne, but too much of a good thing isn't always a good thing. Here's how to tell if you need to supplement and when to back off. acne.org/oral-vitamin-d…
Treating acne with facial hair: 1. If you are willing to shave, or at the very least go to a close stubble, that's best 2. When you're applying medication, apply more, because some can get stuck to the hair, and do it gently. acne.org/treating-acne-…
Most home remedies hold little promise, but lemons could be an exception. Lemons contain some substances that might help improve acne at least to some degree. It's unlikely that lemons would provide dramatic improvement, but they could help a bit. acne.org/does-lemon-jui…
Does just washing your skin help with acne? Most likely yes, to a small degree, but follow these tips: 1. Wash only twice a day 2. Stay gentle, using only your bare hands 3. Use a mild facial cleanser 4. Avoid soap The science: acne.org/does-washing-t…
Glycolic acid is the most-used alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) for acne. It turbo-charges other treatments by exfoliating the skin and enhancing penetration of other treatments. It also makes you look wicked good and even toned. acne.org/how-glycolic-a…
When people talk about "beta hydroxy acids" really they are just talking about salicylic acid. It's the only widely-used BHA. It can help reduce acne, but like any hydroxy acid, it won't do enough on its own. Here's how it works. acne.org/how-beta-hydro…
