Let’s clear this up. Fungal acne isn’t actually acne. It’s a yeast overgrowth on the skin called malassezia.⁠
⁠
It usually shows up as small itchy red bumps on the forehead chest or back and thrives in humid environments especially if you’re sweating a lot wearing tight clothes or have recently taken antibiotics.⁠
⁠
How to treat it:⁠
✔️ Use antifungal ingredients like ketoconazole or selenium sulfide⁠
✔️ Avoid heavy oily skincare⁠
✔️ Shower right after sweating⁠
⁠
Still not going away? It might be time to see a dermatologist. #fungalacne #skincaretips #acnehelp #dermtips #malassezia #healthyskin
