Acne is primarily caused by internal factors rather than external skin issues: an inflamed gut creates systemic inflammation that manifests as acne; dietary triggers like sugar and dairy increase inflammation; stress elevates cortisol which stimulates oil production; insufficient sleep prevents skin healing; and damaging the skin barrier through over-washing or harsh products allows bacteria to thrive. Effective treatment requires addressing these root causes through gut health improvement, dietary changes, stress management, adequate sleep, and gentle skincare, with results typically visible within 60 days.
