What Is Body Acne—and Who Gets It?


Body acne, including "bacne," chest, shoulder, or buttock breakouts, impacts teens and adults due to sweat, friction, hormones, or genetics. Clogged pores, excess oil, bacteria, and irritation create stubborn pimples, cysts, and dark marks—sometimes leading to scarring without early intervention.





Keratosis Pilaris (“Chicken Skin”) Explained


Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a common, harmless condition marked by rough, tiny bumps on upper arms, thighs, or buttocks due to excess keratin plugging hair follicles. KP can create uneven texture, redness, and embarrassment—especially in humid weather, dry skin conditions, or after shaving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your body acne questions, answered.

  • What causes body acne and “bacne”?

    Body acne is caused by excess oil, clogged pores, sweat, friction, bacteria, and occasionally hormonal changes or genetics. Back, chest, and shoulder areas are prone to breakouts due to thicker skin, sweat, and frequent irritation from clothing or exercise.

  • What is keratosis pilaris (“chicken skin”) and can it be cured?

    Keratosis pilaris is a common, genetic skin condition where keratin plugs hair follicles, creating tiny, rough bumps—mainly on arms, thighs, and buttocks. KP is benign and often improves with age, but there is no permanent cure. Consistent exfoliation and moisturizing can keep the condition controlled and skin smoother.

  • How does VI Peel Body help with body acne and keratosis pilaris?

    VI Peel Body uses clinical-grade exfoliants to loosen dead skin, clear keratin plugs, and fade dark spots. It helps improve active breakouts, smooth uneven texture, and lighten pigmentation—even for persistent keratosis pilaris. A series of peels typically yields the best, longest-lasting results.

  • Can Pico laser help with keratosis pilaris and post-acne scars?

    Yes. Pico laser treatments gently break down keratin plugs and remodel uneven texture, fading both scarring and pigmentation from KP or body acne. Pico is suitable for all skin tones and has minimal downtime, making it ideal for stubborn, treatment-resistant cases.

  • What skincare is best for body acne and KP?

    Chemical exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs, retinol) gently dissolve dead skin and keratin plugs.


    Moisturizers with lactic acid, urea, or ceramides soften and smooth bumpy, dry areas.


    Avoid harsh scrubbing or picking—these worsen irritation and may scar the skin.

  • Will these treatments work for sensitive skin or dark complexions?

    Yes! All modalities—including VI Peel Body, Pico laser, Epionce, and ZO Skin Health—can be tailored for sensitive, acne-prone, and deeply pigmented skin types. Our experience ensures safe, effective, and customized care for every skin tone.
