What to Eat for Acne Prone Skin? – Acne Diet by Top Dermatologist

Acne is a common skin concern, especially in a bustling city like Mumbai, where stress, pollution, and dietary habits can all contribute to breakouts. “While skincare routines and treatments play a significant role in managing acne, what you eat also has a profound impact on your skin’s health”, says Dr. Niketa Sonavane, top dermatologist in Mumbai, India and founder of Ambrosia Aesthetics. Understanding the relationship between diet and acne can empower you to make better food choices that may help in calming down your acne prone skin and preventing flare-ups.

Dermatologist, Skin Specialist and Hair Specialist practicing in Mumbai with over 17 years experience and over 10,000 happy patients.

How Diet Affects Acne?

The connection between diet and acne has been debated for years, but recent studies have shed light on how certain foods can exacerbate acne, while others can help keep your skin clear. When you consume foods high in refined sugars or dairy, your body experiences a spike in insulin levels, which can lead to increased sebum production. This excess oil can clog your pores and create a perfect environment for acne-causing bacteria to thrive. Click to Read: Acne Treatment, Pimples Treatment.

Dr. Niketa Sonavane, a leading dermatologist at Ambrosia Aesthetics in Mumbai, explains, “What you eat reflects on your skin. Foods with a high glycemic index, such as white bread, sugary snacks, and soft drinks, can worsen acne by causing hormonal imbalances that trigger inflammation.”

I usually don’t drop reviews but Dr Niketa has absolutely changed my life. Skin is something extremely personal and shapes how you tend to feel about yourself. I had a bad bought of acne a year ago and after visiting multiple doctors I finally came across Dr Niketa. She got to the root cause, helped me find out I had pcos and treated my symptoms from the roots and not just superficially. I have had the best support from her staff. Highly recommended!

In 2020, I had my first consultation with Ambrosia Aesthetics after struggling with persistent skin issues—specifically acne and hyperpigmentation—for nearly nine years. Despite my efforts to eat healthily, work on my lifestyle, and seek professional help, my skin's condition only worsened with each passing year. It reached a point where I could barely recognize myself in the mirror.
Feeling hopeless, I resigned myself to living with my skin as it was. However, deep down, I still yearned for even the slightest improvement. That’s when I came across Dr. Niketa at Ambrosia Aesthetics through reviews on Google.
Dr. Niketa’s approach was nothing short of transformative. She patiently listened to my concerns and recommended a skincare routine that was simple yet effective. Her positivity and confidence reassured me—she genuinely believed in the possibility of change and gave me a renewed sense of hope. Her passion for her work was evident in every interaction.
She devised a personalized treatment plan, and after just four sessions, I began to see a remarkable difference in my skin. For the first time in years, I felt happy and confident. Today, four years later, my acne has not returned, and my skin remains healthy and radiant. It has to be one of the best decisions I have ever made.
No words can truly capture the depth of my gratitude. From the bottom of my heart—thank you, Dr. Niketa and the team at Ambrosia Aesthetics. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone facing skin challenges.

I’ve been visiting Dr. Niketa Sonavane for my acne treatment for the past month and a half, and I can confidently say it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin. The results are visible, and the improvement has been more than what I had hoped for in such a short time. My skin feels healthier, clearer, and more confident each day.

Dr. Niketa is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive — it’s almost as if she understands your concerns before you even voice them. Every consultation is informative and reassuring. The treatment plan was explained in detail, tailored to my skin needs, and the progress is constantly monitored, which shows how invested the doctor and her team is in the patient’s well-being.

What also makes this clinic stand out is the amazing staff. They are welcoming, professional, and efficient — always ready to help, whether it’s scheduling appointments or guiding through the procedures.

I truly appreciate the care, dedication, and excellence shown by Dr. Niketa and the entire team. I feel like I’m in the best hands, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for genuine, effective dermatological care.

I honestly cannot express how much my skin has changed in the past year. The goal is always healing your skin and hair internally and finding a solution that’s permanent & that’s what I really loved about Dr. Niketa.

She is extremely understanding and explains every little detail with calmness.

I am thankful that I found her, she truly helped me get rid of my acne struggles which I had for years. I feel confident in my skin which is all I wanted.

Foods That Can Make Acne Worse

High Glycemic Index Foods

High glycemic index (GI) foods cause a rapid spike in blood sugar levels, which can lead to increased sebum production. These foods include white bread, pastries, sugary cereals, and anything made with white flour. Consuming these on a regular basis can worsen acne by triggering hormonal fluctuations.

Dairy Products

Dairy, particularly milk, has been linked to acne flare-ups. Some theories suggest that the hormones present in milk can interfere with your body’s hormone levels, leading to increased oil production and clogged pores. According to Dr. Sonavane, “Many of my patients notice a significant improvement in their skin when they reduce or eliminate dairy from their diet.”

Fast Food and Fried Foods

Fast food items, such as burgers, fries, and other greasy foods, are high in unhealthy fats that can inflame the skin and lead to acne. These foods also often contain preservatives and other chemicals that can further irritate the skin.

Chocolate

The link between chocolate and acne is still debated, but some studies suggest that the sugar and dairy content in chocolate could contribute to breakouts. Dr. Sonavane notes, “While dark chocolate is less likely to cause acne than milk chocolate, it’s still important to consume it in moderation if you are prone to breakouts.”

Foods That Can Calm Acne-Prone Skin

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish like salmon, walnuts, and flaxseeds, have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne. Incorporating these into your diet can help balance your skin and reduce the frequency of breakouts. Click to Read: What to Eat for Glowing Skin.

Zinc-Rich Foods

Zinc is an essential mineral that helps regulate oil production in the skin and can reduce the severity of acne. Foods rich in zinc, such as pumpkin seeds, chickpeas, and lean meats, can be beneficial for those with acne-prone skin.

Probiotic-Rich Foods

Probiotics, found in foods like yogurt, kefir, and fermented vegetables, support gut health, which in turn can influence your skin’s condition. A healthy gut microbiome can reduce inflammation and improve your skin’s natural defenses against acne.

Green Tea

Green tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which can reduce inflammation and fight acne-causing bacteria. Drinking green tea regularly or applying it topically can provide calming effects on acne-prone skin.

Low-Glycemic Index Foods

Opting for low-GI foods, such as whole grains, vegetables, and legumes, can help maintain steady blood sugar levels and prevent the spikes that can lead to acne. These foods also provide essential nutrients that support overall skin health.

FAQs About Diet and Acne

Can changing my diet alone clear up my acne?

While diet plays a significant role in managing acne, it’s usually most effective when combined with a good skincare routine and, in some cases, dermatological treatments. Dr. Sonavane emphasizes, “A holistic approach that includes diet, skincare, and professional treatments is often the best way to achieve clear skin.”

How long does it take to see results from dietary changes?

Dietary changes can take several weeks to a few months to show noticeable effects on your skin. It’s important to be patient and consistent with your dietary adjustments.

Are there specific foods that everyone with acne should avoid?

Common culprits include high-GI foods, dairy, and fried foods, but it’s essential to remember that everyone’s skin reacts differently. Dr. Sonavane suggests, “Keeping a food diary can help you identify any personal triggers that may be worsening your acne.”

Can supplements help with acne?

Supplements like zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, and probiotics can support skin health, but it’s always best to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new supplement. Dr. Sonavane advises, “Supplements should complement, not replace, a balanced diet and good skincare habits.”

Your diet has a direct impact on your skin, especially if you are prone to acne. By making mindful food choices, you can help manage and potentially reduce acne flare-ups. Dr. Niketa Sonavane, a leading dermatologist at Ambrosia Aesthetics, Mumbai, recommends adopting a balanced diet that supports overall skin health.
