ABOUT THIS COLLECTION

Achieve clearer, healthier skin with our Acne Treatment collection at Coal Harbour Pharmacy.

Effective acne care focuses on clearing pores, regulating oil production, and calming skin irritation.

Our pharmacist-curated selection includes medicated cleansers, treatment gels, spot solutions, creams, and natural skincare options designed to address common acne concerns. Products feature clinically recognized ingredients such as salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, niacinamide, azelaic acid, and tea tree oil that help unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and support balanced skin.

Suitable for teens and adults, our acne treatment solutions range from targeted over-the-counter therapies to gentle botanical formulations for sensitive or reactive skin. Shop online with fast Canadian shipping or visit our Vancouver pharmacy for personalized skincare guidance.

COMMON ACNE CAUSES & TREATMENT APPROACHES

Acne can develop for several reasons including excess oil production, clogged pores, bacteria buildup, and hormonal fluctuations. Identifying the underlying cause can help guide the most effective treatment strategy.

• Oily Skin & Congested Pores

Salicylic acid cleansers and exfoliating treatments help remove buildup and reduce excess sebum.

• Inflammatory Breakouts

Benzoyl peroxide and antibacterial treatments help reduce acne-causing bacteria.

• Hormonal Acne

Often appearing along the jawline and chin, hormonal acne may benefit from targeted skincare and supportive nutrients such as zinc.
