FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can oily skin still be dehydrated?
Yes. Oily skin can lack water while still producing excess oil. Hydration remains an important part of an acne routine.
When should I see a dermatologist?
If your acne is painful, severe, persistent, or leaving scars, it is best to speak with a dermatologist or healthcare professional.
How long does an acne routine take to show results?
Many skincare products require several weeks of consistent use before visible improvements can be assessed.
Should I use sunscreen if I have acne?
Yes. Daily sunscreen helps protect skin from UV damage and supports a healthy skincare routine.
Can I use multiple active ingredients together?
Some combinations work well, while others may increase irritation. Introduce new products gradually and monitor how your skin responds.
