TCM Acne Support

At YouHealth, we understand that acne is more than a skin issue—it often reflects internal imbalances in your body. Rather than using harsh topicals, our approach is to treat acne from the inside out, based on your unique body constitution.

We offer a natural, personalised way to address acne, restore skin clarity, and support long-term health through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

What Causes Acne in TCM?

In TCM, acne is commonly associated with:

  • Heat and Dampness accumulating in the Lung, Stomach, or Blood

  • Hormonal imbalances due to Liver Qi stagnation or Kidney deficiency

  • Poor sleep, irregular diet, stress, and emotional tension

These internal disharmonies manifest as:

  • Red, inflamed pimples

  • Oily skin with clogged pores

  • Cystic acne or acne along the jawline

  • Scarring or dark spots after breakouts

Our treatment targets these root imbalances, rather than simply drying out the surface.

Common Patterns Behind Acne

YouHealth practitioners assess your pulse, tongue, skin condition, and emotional state to identify patterns like:

  • Lung and Stomach Heat

  • Liver Qi Stagnation with Heat

  • Damp-Heat in the Spleen

  • Blood Heat or Blood Stasis

  • Yin Deficiency with Internal Heat

Each pattern requires a different treatment strategy, which is why one-size-fits-all doesn’t work in acne care.

YouHealth’s Holistic Acne Programme

Our TCM-based acne treatment may include a combination of:

Facial & Body Acupuncture

Acupuncture is used not only on the face but also along meridians affecting the Lung, Liver, and Stomach—balancing the root cause.
