Maintenance: Keeping Body Acne at Bay
Once your body acne starts to improve, don’t stop the routine. Maintenance is key:
- Use your acne body wash a few times per week to prevent new breakouts
- Continue using a light, non-comedogenic body moisturizer daily
- Avoid sitting in sweaty clothes for long periods
- Exfoliate regularly (but not daily)
- Stick to breathable fabrics
When to See a Dermatologist
If your breakouts are painful, deep, or don’t respond to over-the-counter products, it’s best to consult a dermatologist. They can prescribe oral medication or stronger topicals to manage your skin more effectively.
