Not all acne looks the same

Clogged pores can result in whiteheads, blackheads, and other types of acne. Not sure what type of acne you have? We’re here to help!

Clogged pore treatment FAQs

30-day trial. Subject to consultation. Cancel anytime.
What causes clogged pores?

Pores get clogged when new skin cells grow in a pore where dead skin cells are still hanging out. When your face naturally produces oil (aka sebum), these already overcrowded pores fill up and stretch out.

What ingredients in my personalized formula help unclog pores?

Your Curology personalized formula is made with ingredients such as tretinoin and azelaic acid picked for your skin concerns.

When will I see results?

With consistent use, many patients using these types of ingredients notice a difference within 6-8 weeks—but everyone’s skin is different, so this timeline might vary for you. It’s also important to remember that this is a long-term journey! We’re not just going for progress, but also prevention.
