The one step I was vitally missing in my routine? Seeing a dermatologist. Dr. Bhanusali warned me that my stress-related acne flare ups could be a myriad of things like rosacea or even a hormone imbalance.
"Stress-caused acne may be really part of a larger, hormonal issue that needs to be rebalanced," he said. "You could also have mild rosacea which is something significantly under diagnosed out there. Stress really could be just triggering the rosacea and causing mild flares."
