What is causing my acne, and is it something I’m doing wrong?
Acne is usually caused by a combination of factors, including hormones, genetics, and excess oil production. It’s not your fault—things like diet and skincare habits can play a role, but they’re not the sole cause. AcneCareMD can help identify your triggers and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
How fast will I see results from treatment?
Results vary depending on the treatment and the severity of your acne, but most patients start noticing improvements within 4-8 weeks. It’s important to be patient and consistent with your routine. AcneCareMD will monitor your progress and adjust the treatment if needed to ensure the best outcome.
What products should I use or avoid to help my acne?
Use gentle, non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores) cleansers and moisturizers. Avoid harsh scrubs, overly drying products, and anything with heavy oils. AcneCareMD can recommend products specifically suited to your skin type and condition.
Will acne leave scars, and how can I prevent or treat them?
Acne can leave scars, especially if you pick or pop pimples. To prevent scarring, follow your treatment plan and avoid touching your face. If scarring does occur, AcneCareMD offers treatments like chemical peels, laser therapy, and microneedling that can reduce their appearance.
Are there changes I can make to improve my skin?
Yes! A healthy lifestyle can make a big difference. Eating a balanced diet, drinking plenty of water, managing stress, and getting enough sleep can all improve your skin. Regularly washing your pillowcases and avoiding touching your face also helps keep acne at bay. AcneCareMD can provide additional tips and guidance to support your skincare journey.
