Probiotics and acne connection explored
Acne vulgaris, probiotics and the gut-brain-skin axis: from anecdote to translational medicine.
Medium relevance to skin health
We explored the connection between probiotics, particularly Lactobacillus acidophilus, and acne, delving into the gut-brain-skin axis. This long-standing theory suggests that our emotional states can impact gut health, potentially leading to acne due to inflammation and other factors.

Recent scientific studies indicate that probiotics might affect acne severity by influencing inflammation and even mood. However, while the relationship between gut health and skin clarity is intriguing, we did not find strong evidence conclusively linking Lactobacillus acidophilus treatment to significant improvements in acne.

Probiotic effects on acne unclear
Acne vulgaris, probiotics and the gut-brain-skin axis - back to the future?
Some relevancy in treatment
We explored the connection between gut health and acne, particularly the impact of Lactobacillus acidophilus. Historically, researchers like Stokes and Pillsbury suggested that our emotional states and gut microflora could influence skin conditions, including acne. Their idea that probiotics might help reduce inflammation and improve skin health has gained traction. While recent studies validate some aspects of this gut-brain-skin link, Lactobacillus acidophilus is still being examined for its specific role in treating acne effectively. Current results indicate that we might not yet see significant improvements directly attributed to this probiotic.

Skin improvement
This probiotic helped ease my stomach heaviness. Surprisingly, my skin started to clear, and acne on my chin transformed into small spots. I noticed a temporary "relapse," but the newer spots healed faster than usual. After a month of taking the supplement, the previous subcutaneous acne didn't return, though a couple of minor ones might appear. I've realised that probiotics are beneficial beyond just stomach discomfort.

Reduced acne
Since using this product, I’ve experienced less colic after eating. My acne and hives have improved significantly, along with my atopic condition.
