We’ve answered your common questions about Spot Treatments.

Can spot treatment make acne worse with purging?

Yes, some acne spot treatments may cause purging as they speed up skin cell turnover, bringing clogged pores to the surface before clearing them. This is common with retinol, benzoyl peroxide, and salicylic acid. Purging typically lasts 4–6 weeks, but if irritation persists, adjust usage or book a consult with one of our professionals.

What spot treatment is best for cystic acne?

For cystic acne, benzoyl peroxide is highly effective in killing acne-causing bacteria and reducing inflammation. If you have sensitive skin, sulfur-based spot treatments provide a gentler alternative by drying out deep blemishes and absorbing excess oil without causing excessive irritation.

What spot treatment should I use for my acne type?

Whiteheads & Blackheads – Salicylic acid unclogs pores and prevents buildup.
Inflamed Pimples & Pustules – Benzoyl peroxide targets bacteria and reduces swelling.
Cystic Acne – Sulfur or benzoyl peroxide for deep blemishes.
Sensitive Skin Acne – Sulfur or niacinamide to calm and reduce redness.

When to use spot treatment?

Apply spot treatment after cleansing and before moisturizer. It’s best used at night, allowing active ingredients to work while your skin repairs. For daytime use, follow with moisturizer and SPF to protect the skin from irritation.

How much spot treatment do I use?

Use a tiny amount (pea-sized or less) directly on the blemish. Applying too much can lead to irritation or dryness. Let it fully absorb before layering other skincare products for optimal effectiveness.

Is your routine all set?

A full skincare routine is essential because your skin needs more than basic cleansing and hydration to stay healthy. Cleansers remove dirt, but serums target specific issues like aging or dark spots, while moisturizers lock in hydration and sunscreen protects from damage. Investing in the full routine ensures long-term skin health and visible results.
