Understanding Acne: Causes and Effects
Acne is the result of your skin’s oil glands overproducing oil, which can clog pores along with dead skin cells. This overproduction can be triggered by hormonal changes, stress, diet, and even certain cosmetics. The result? Blackheads, whiteheads, more painful pimples, and cysts.
The effects of acne go beyond skin deep. You might feel frustrated, embarrassed, and anxious about your appearance. Remember, you’re not alone, and effective treatments are available.

Skincare and Lifestyle Tips
To support your acne treatment process and prevent future breakouts,
we recommend following these tips:
- Cleanse your face twice daily with a gentle cleanser to remove excess oil and dirt.
- Exfoliate 2-3 times weekly to shed dead skin cells and promote new cell growth.
- Moisturise your skin with a moisturiser suited to your skin type.
- Apply acne-fighting products containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
- Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and flush out toxins.
- Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Avoid sugary foods and dairy products that may trigger acne.
- Exercise regularly to increase blood circulation, which helps nourish skin cells and keep them healthy.
- Try yoga, meditation, or deep breathing to manage your stress, as high stress levels can increase the hormone cortisol, which may worsen acne.
- Choose makeup and skincare products labelled “non-comedogenic,” meaning they won’t clog pores.
- Use sunscreen daily, even when cloudy, to protect your skin from harmful UV rays that can exacerbate acne and scars.
- Avoid touching your face, and keep your pillowcases and towels clean.
