There is no cure for acne but you can control it. If you are struggling to get clear and stay clear there are several things to look at.
Using your products consistently and exactly as your acne specialist instructs you is key. Topical products can effectively keep you clear if you are consistent. If you skip your routine, even every now and then, you will struggle to get clear and stay that way.
If you tend to run out of products often and have to go a few days without treating you allow new comedones to form and they will eventually reach the surface and show up on your skin.
If you change your routine without consulting your acne specialist you could cause skin irritation that may result in missed days of product usage.
If you choose to use non-recommended products that contain pore cloggers you will struggle to get clear.
Following all the lifestyle suggestions from your acne specialist is crucial to maintain clear skin. The are some things to pay attention to:
Avoid dairy products such as yogurt, cheese, milk and whey
Avoid soy in all forms
Avoid peanut butter, peanut oil and corn oil
Avoid vitamins and supplements containing iodides, potassium, kelp and biotin
Do not use fabric softeners or dryer sheets
Avoid sushi and seaweed, especially shell fish such as shrimp, crab, lobster and scallops
Avoid iodized salt
Get enough sleep and reduce your stress
Avoid friction on your skin such as wearing hats, helmets, holding your phone between your shoulder and your face, etc.
Avoid low-dose birth control pills
Discuss any prescription drugs you are taking with your acne specialist
