6 Steps on How to Clear Up Acne


Have you been struggling with acne for years? Or maybe you’ve recently begun breaking out due to the mask and lockdown stress? Dealing with acne can be frustrating.

Treating acne requires consistency and patience! Seeking professional guidance when treating even mild acne is an important step in the journey to clear skin. Early intervention can get breakouts under control in a short time frame, quickly fade away acne marks, and reduce the risk of developing permanent acne scars. If you think you cannot afford the expensive acne facials, acne chemical peels, or acne laser treatments you read about in magazines or on social media, you start to listen to your friends, or begin following the advice of non-expert influencers/celebrities, and start buying this or that over-the-counter products, even going so far as to make your own home-remedy, hoping for a miracle. Unfortunately, there are no such “miracle products” that exist. You could end up wasting your money on wrong products or the wrong regimen—therefore sensitizing your skin, making your skin dry and easily irritated, worsening your acne, or prolonging the healing process; and in worst-case scenarios, even leaving permanent acne scars which require more expensive treatments down the road.

This is why we’ve put together 6 steps to help clear up your acne.
