- 1). Clean your face morning and night with a gentle face wash. Makeup, pollution in the air and sweat can all cause your pores to block and form blackheads or acne. Ask your doctor what type of cleaner to use if you are prone to acne.
- 2). Remove processed foods from your diet and eat a healthy, balanced diet. The DermaTend website states that diet plays a role in combating against acne and that, "A balanced diet that is rich in vegetables and fruits provides the necessary vitamins and minerals to support clear skin."
- 3). Examine your water intake, and increase how much water you drink to at least eight glasses of water a day. MayoClinic.com states that if you drink water, it can help in the battle against acne by flushing out the bad toxins from your body and keeping your body hydrated.
- 4). Treat your acne with medication prescribed by a doctor or dermatologist. The doctor will take all factors into consideration, including the medication that you may currently be on, and she can prescribe a medication that will help keep your acne at bay.
