ACNE
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles under the skin become plugged with oil and dead skin cells, which results in skin that may be inflamed or non-inflamed. Either of these conditions may cause pimples, pustules, whiteheads, blackheads, and cysts. NeoGenesis skin care products support acneic skin, rebalancing and restoring the skin’s pH and natural sebum production.

REVIEWS
“I want to tell you about a female client in her mid 20’s who suffers from cystic acne since her teens. She has an oily T zone with large pores. She also has overgrown / thick facial hair, and suffers from ingrown hair which probably contributes to some of the breakouts. I had done a few facial treatments with some progress on her. I was then able to include RECOVERY and SKIN SERUM in the last 2 treatments. Her skin isn’t as oily and I see there are fewer cystic pustules. Very exciting! I sent her home with RECOVERY! I will keep you posted with her progress.” – MV

“I have been dealing with acne since puberty. I am prone to stress, and breakout, but now the breakouts clear up much faster. I’m feeling excited that I can see a huge difference and my skin is getting clearer and more smooth.” – TM

“I love this cleanser. Keeps my ACNE at bay and my complexion clear. There is no strong smell, which I love. My face feels clean and nourished and not dry or tight. It’s a good base for my acid application. Even got my daughter to start using it and she loves it too!!” – JB

“My client has had issues with cystic acne for quite some time. He also works at a wood pulp mill and is often around the chemicals in the air. Once he started on a regular skin care regimen using NeoGenesis products, his skin started to improve almost immediately. The redness started to subside, the flaky skin started to improve and the itchiness is now gone.” – Becky Stratton, The Skin Studio

RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS
If you have acne-prone skin, the first step is using a gentle cleanser without sulfates. NeoGenesis Cleanser can be used on all skin types and all skin conditions, leaving the skin clean and nourished, without stripping the skin. Use our Cleanser twice daily.
After Cleanser, Recovery serum, abundant in S²RM® technology, is perfect to naturally restore balance within the skin. Using Recovery twice a day after cleansing will help to quickly restore the skin, reducing the chances that scarring will occur.
Next apply Mandelic Acid 8% or Salicylic Acid Gel (once daily for the first 2 weeks, if needed can incorporate the use twice daily. Salicylic Acid Gel can be used as a spot treatment for affected areas). Our recommendation is alternate the use of each acid to help keep irritation at a minimum.
People who have acneic skin often steer clear of moisturizers, worrying that they will make their skin worse. Acne-prone skin doesn’t need oil, however, it does need hydration. Hydrated skin is a must for healthy skin. Keeping it hydrated will not trigger more oil production. Aggressively treated skin often appears oily and dehydrated at the same time. This will signal the hormones to produce more oil, keeping the problem ongoing. A light application of our Light Moisturizer or Barrier Renewal Cream may be used as needed after Recovery for any dry areas.
Follow with a chemical-free sunscreen during the day.
Complete your skincare routine with NeoGenesis MB-1 spray. It will help restore balance to the skin surface, which may mitigate breakouts and irritation.
