Anti-Fungal Acne Products

Fungal acne (malassezia folliculitis), unlike true acne, occurs due to the overgrowth of Malassezia yeast within hair follicles in the skin microbiome. Small, uniformly sized papules, itching, and flares especially after sweating are typical findings.

This collection contains products suitable for fungal acne: oil-free non-comedogenic cleansers, toners containing salicylic acid and azelaic acid, sulfur and zinc-based treatment formulations, moisturizers with optimized ingredient lists that are not fungus-friendly, and mineral filter SPF sunscreens.

Fungal acne-focused care is recommended for individuals who experience itchy clusters of small papules that do not improve with traditional acne products. You can consult our Medicblu experts for the right product and protocol; in cases of treatment-resistant conditions, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist.
