A member asked:

Does daily use of smoking weed cause hormonal inbalance leading to acne? i'm on accutane for 6 months, it helped, but i don't think i found the cause

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Won't find cause: There isn't a cause to find. Acne just happens. The actual cause is in the complex interplay of a huge number factors. What we do know is that after 50 years of real science, nobody has identified a single lifestyle-related factor -- even touching the lesions or poor hygiene or eating chocolate -- that much increases risk. Anyone telling you otherwise is misleading you.
