Acne Lab’s Proven Clear Skin Strategy
How to Prevent and Clear up Acne
At The Acne Lab, we are acne experts. And we’ve developed a prescription-free, acne skincare strategy that has helped thousands of teens and adults get healthy, clear skin.
What’s our secret? Getting clear skin isn’t just about products. It’s also about the process.
Clear Skin Obstacles: Why You Need a Skincare Strategy
To understand the secret to getting clear skin, you first have to understand the obstacles you face.
- Acne is genetic and can’t be cured. Acne is a genetic skin disorder. If you are born with it, then you will have this genetic predisposition towards acne your entire life. While drugs like Acutane are advertised as a solution for acne, it is only 40% effective as a lasting solution. That means 60% of clients who take Acutane will struggle with acne after taking that prescription.
- Acne is a chronic skin condition. Acne often needs to be managed for years at a time and for some of us, it is simply the skin we’ve been given and will need to be managed throughout our lives.
- Acne is adaptable. Even the most successful skincare routine will likely lose its effectiveness over time if it doesn’t manage to prevent your skin’s adaptation to the products.
These obstacles are why it’s so hard for acne-prone teens and adults to get and maintain clear skin. If you feel like you’ve tried everything without lasting results or your acne keeps coming back, it’s because you need a real skincare strategy.
Skincare Routine
Acne is a chronic and adaptable skin condition, which responds best to an organized, strategic, and diverse skincare routine.
So, your first step to clear skin is to learn and adopt the Clear Skin Rules. We make following the Clear Skin Rules easy by providing you with both the skincare products and the strategy of how to use them over time to achieve and maintain clear skin.
We find many people who struggle with acne are using products that are harsh, dry up their skin, or even have ingredients that clog their pores. We know it’s commonly thought that you need to dry out acne. Instead, the key to clearing up acne is making sure your skin is healthy and hydrated.
At The Acne Lab, you’ll be given a skincare routine we call Skincare 101. These products are designed to heal, hydrate, and protect your skin. Skincare 101 also preps your skin for when we begin adding products with active ingredients designed to clear and prevent acne.
Skincare & Education
If you are acne-prone, you will have acne-prone skin for years and for some people (especially women) it's the skin they’ll have for life. So, it’s important to learn how to manage it on your own. We find that a lot of teens and adults make skincare decisions based on acne myths, outdated advice, or unrealistic social media claims.
We clear up that misinformation and eliminate the guesswork. We help you understand how to care for your skin, avoid your acne triggers, handle breakouts, and keep your skin clear for life.
Adjust & Update Skincare
Because skin adapts to skincare over time, you have to be proactive about adjusting your products.
This is especially important while you are actively working to clear your skin. You can think of this like an exercise program. Just like you have to adjust your workouts to get and stay fit, we adjust your skincare to help your skin get and stay “fit.”
Over time, we progressively introduce new “exercises” in the form of active skincare products containing ingredients that can prevent and control acne. These products can potentially be drying, so we help your skin remain healthy and hydrated. This helps guide your skin to behave differently than it wants to.
Our job is to make sure your skin does not adapt to the skincare routine and stops responding. If you’re in one of our acne programs, then we’ll do frequent check-ins and communicate with you to make sure you are on track to getting clear “fit” skin!
Once you become a Clear Skin Graduate, you may occasionally need to update your skincare if your skin adapts. We are here to support you, and we offer skincare tune-ups when you need them.
