Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when pores become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria—leading to blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, and deeper cysts. While often associated with hormones or excess oil, there are several types of acne, including:

• Comedonal acne (blackheads and whiteheads)

• Inflammatory acne (red, swollen breakouts)

• Cystic acne (deep, painful nodules)

• Hormonal acne (typically cyclical, often along the jawline)

• Fungal acne (Malassezia folliculitis—caused by yeast overgrowth rather than bacteria)

At Good Glow Skin Therapy, I take a personalized, skin-science-based approach to clearing acne. Treatments are designed to:

• Calm inflammation

• Restore barrier function

• Address microbial imbalances (including fungal triggers)

• Balance oil production

• Fade post-breakout pigmentation (PIH)

Using targeted ingredients, advanced exfoliation methods, LED light therapy, and consistent home care recommendations, I help guide your skin toward clarity without harsh stripping or one-size-fits-all solutions.
