Remote tours and outdoor days make it harder to reach help, so carry water, basic supplies and your medicines, and contact us early.

About Acne
When pores fill with sebum and dead skin, the result is acne: pimples, blackheads and occasionally sore nodules.
Causes and Risk Factors
Hormonal changes, oily skin, bacteria and genetics lie behind acne. Heat, sweat, sunscreen or cosmetics that block pores, and friction from straps or masks, can make it flare on holiday.
How Acne Feels
- Oily skin
- Marks or scarring after spots heal
- Deeper painful lumps or cysts
- Blackheads and whiteheads
Care and Treatment for Acne
The doctor can look at your skin by video or photos, suggest a routine and prescribe topical or oral treatment where suitable, and say when a dermatologist visit makes sense. Treatment can involve topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoids or topical antibiotics, and sometimes oral antibiotics.
- Avoid squeezing spots, which can scar
- Choose oil-free, non-comedogenic sunscreen and cosmetics
- Rinse off sweat and sunscreen after swimming
- Wash gently twice a day with a mild cleanser
