Follow up with a gentle facial cleanser to make sure your face is thoroughly cleansed.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not leave sunscreen\/makeup overnight.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep your skin moisturized to prevent excessive oil production.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s also helpful to prevent hair from touching your face.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have an oily scalp, make it a habit to wash your hair every day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-not-to-do\">What NOT to do?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To prevent deep scarring, you must not pick, scratch, or squeeze your pimple. Such actions increase the risk of skin infection, scarring, and prolonged recovery.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not wear cloth headbands, caps, or hats because they serve as a breeding ground for bacteria.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not touch your face with your hands, fingers, or hair as it can transfer bacteria and cause acne.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid using heavy texture moisturizers or makeup, as it may clog pores and cause skin issues.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you really need to wear makeup, opt for non-comedogenic or oil-free formulas to minimize the risk of pore clogging. At the end of the day, remove the makeup and ensure a comprehensive cleanse is performed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For most people, acne usually resolves on its own after adolescence, but in some cases, it may prolong into middle age. If you begin to feel that over-the-counter medication does not work over an extended period, your acne is worsening, and you are experiencing elevated emotional stress and depression, it\u2019s best to seek assistance from your trustable skin clinics. Professional advice can help address the root cause of acne problems and provide an individualized treatment plan to manage skin issues effectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sources\">Sources:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>American Academy of Dermatology Association.
