Body Acne Treatment
Clear Your Back, Chest & Confidence
What is Body Acne?
Body acne refers to breakouts that occur on areas other than the face — most commonly the back (bacne), chest, shoulders, and buttocks.
Like facial acne, it is caused by:
• Excess oil (sebum) production
• Clogged pores
• Bacterial overgrowth (Cutibacterium acnes)
• Friction, sweat, or hormonal imbalances
At Dermosphere Clinic, we provide personalized, dermatologist-supervised treatments to effectively manage and prevent body acne, improve skin clarity, and reduce pigmentation or scarring.
Common Causes of Body Acne
• Hormonal imbalances (especially in teens, PCOS, or stress)
• Excessive sweating (gym, heat, tight clothing)
• Friction from backpacks, helmets, or sports gear
• Poor exfoliation or oil-based products
• Genetics or family history
• Certain medications (like steroids or protein supplements)
