Acne & Pimples FAQ

1) Is Acne caused by dirt or un-cleanliness?

Acne is caused by overproduction and clogging of the pore by excessive oil produced by the oil glands. Because the pore is deep within the skin, you can not wash away the pimples, no matter how many times a day you wash or scrub your face.

2) Can blackheads result in scarring?

Blackheads will not result in scaring by themselves. Inflammatory acne or deep cystic acne carries the most potential for scarring but constant picking and popping of blackheads can likewise leave permanent damage.

3) Will Clearogen products help the pimples on my body?

Definitely. Breakouts on the body are most common where oil glands are most prevalent; on the back, chest, and shoulders. Clearogen Acne Lotion will help treat and prevent acne in these areas.

4) What is DHT and why does it the cause of acne?

DHT or Dihydrotestosterone is a hormone by-product produced by both males and females particularly during puberty. As the levels of DHT increase, the oil glands become overly stimulated and result in overproduction of oil. This excessive oil accumulates in the pores and clogs the pores, resulting in acne. Clearogen is the only product to address the excessive DHT with natural botanicals that work to dramatically reduce DHT resulting in normal oil production and oil flow. As such acne can be prevented at the first step.

5) Is squeezing a pimple bad?

Yes. Squeezing or popping pimples spreads bacteria and ultimately results in scars. Popping a pimple could actually make the pimple last longer b/c the skin ends up red and irritated for a longer period. By using Clearogen's acne toner you can help dry the pimple faster with out leaving scars or redness and irritation.

6) Do I need to use Acne spot treatments?

No. The key to acne treatment is PREVENTION . By using the 3 step Clearogen Acne treatment all over your face you can prevent breakouts before they develop while treating the existing acne lesions.

7) Does makeup cause Acne?

Yes. Pore clogging make up or oil-based cosmetics can result or worsen acne. It is wise to always buy makeup that is noncomedogenic; meaning that it won't clog your pores. Using Clearogen foaming skin cleanser, you can gently remove make up while treating your acne.
