FAQ - Common questions & answers

What should I do to get rid of acne?

Acne is a common problem, but there is help. Use products specially formulated for acne-prone skin. Wash your face a maximum of twice a day with a mild facial cleanser. Exfoliate and deep clean regularly and moisturize with a non-greasy cream. The products should be non-comedogenic, meaning they won't clog pores.

Bacteria collect in the clogged pores and cause inflammation and bulges, pimples. We have the most sebaceous glands on the face and back, which is why acne is most common there.

What is the cause of acne?

Acne is caused by overproduction of sebum (fat) in the hair follicles. The hair follicles become clogged with sebum and dead skin cells with bacteria that cause inflammation. Acne can be caused by several factors such as genetics, hormones, diet and stress. Make-up and skin care products that are comedogenic (pore-clogging) can also cause acne. Therefore, use non-comedogenic products adapted for acne-prone skin.

What is the difference between acne and pimples?

Acne and pimples can be the same thing, but they don't have to be. Pimples are the bumps you see on the skin when a hair follicle has become clogged with sebum (fat) and dead skin cells. A pore mask forms inside the pimple. The hair follicle often becomes inflamed. If you have acne, you usually have many pimples in one area, e.g. the face or on the back. Pimples usually mean individual inflamed hair follicles.

Can acne go away?

Can you get acne from stress?

Stress affects our body more than many people think. Underneath, our bodies produce more hormones. Among other things, hormones that stimulate the production of oil from the sebaceous glands - which clogs the pores and triggers breakouts. A little stress now and then is not dangerous for the body and is not what triggers acne. However, prolonged stress can worsen the situation if you have acne-prone skin.
