>>528962634>this is a meme. touching your own face doesn't make the bacteria already on your face grow FASTER.I never said it was because you touch your face.
Acne is and will never be anything other than inflammation.
When you don't wash your hair, your hands, your bed sheets whatever, dirt, grime and oils accumulate and these are what produce your body's reaction. It doesn't have to be bacteria. Dirt cover your pores, preventing your skin from breathing, it becomes inflamed.
Some people even shave with razors during acne, further irritating the skin.
The largest sources for dirt, grime and oil on your face is hair, so shower and shampoo, hands, so wash at least twice a day (perfect when you visit the rest room) clothes, so launder them regularly and bedsheets, so wash them regularly.
While you do this, grow a beard in order to give your skin time to recover.
If you do all this and your acne isn't gone within a month, NOW you can see a doctor. For most people, it is an irritated skin. We all get pimples when we irritate the skin, I still get it all the time when I shave incorrectly, acne is the pathology of that, don't let it get so bad your scar your skin. You can get rid of the red, but you can't get rid of the scar-tissue.
