Maybe. Maybe not.: It won't be due to drinking more water or less water. Just drinking a normal amount of water is fine. Intentionally drinking a little more water or a little less water will not alter the acne. If the acne is altered, it would be just a coincidence that there was a change in the amount of water drunk.
