Understanding your concern
What causes breakouts and pigmentation?
Acne is driven by excess oil, blocked pores, bacteria and inflammation, often influenced by hormones and lifestyle. Pigmentation, including dark marks left after breakouts, happens when skin produces extra melanin in response to inflammation, sun or hormones.
Results come from treating active skin, fading marks and building a routine that keeps skin balanced. If your acne is severe or painful, we may recommend seeing your GP or a dermatologist first.
