Acne Myths That Simply Aren’t True

At Orchard Med Spa, we're passionate about educating our clients and providing top-notch skincare solutions. In honor of Acne Awareness Month this June, we’re debunking some common acne myths and highlighting the services and products that can help you achieve clear, healthy skin.

Myth: Acne treatment should only be used as a spot treatment on blemishes.

Fact: To prevent acne effectively, spread acne medication evenly all over the face. This approach helps to prevent new blemishes from forming.

Myth: You can use toothpaste as acne treatment.

Fact: Toothpaste is formulated for your teeth, not your skin. It will not improve your acne and may even cause irritation, making your skin condition worse.

Myth: Acne will clear on its own after your teenage years are over.

Fact: While acne is common during teenage years, many adults continue to experience acne well into their 30s, 40s, and even 50s. Proper skincare is essential at every age.

Myth: Acne treatment works immediately.

Fact: Acne treatment requires patience and consistency. It can take weeks to months before you see significant results, so stick with your regimen.
