FAQ
Trust & Accuracy
How accurate are the BreakoutLabs at-home tests?
Our tests are processed in CLIA-certified labs, the same standard used by hospitals and doctors. Every result is reviewed by a medical professional to ensure accuracy and reliability.
How does this test compare to what I’d get from a dermatologist or clinic?
Dermatologists usually look at symptoms on the surface. BreakoutLabs goes deeper by measuring the internal biomarkers that trigger acne like hormones, stress, and nutrient imbalances. You’ll get insights most clinics don’t offer.
What biomarkers are included in the Acne Root Cause Test?
We test for 7 key markers connected to breakouts: cortisol (stress), testosterone, estrogen, insulin, vitamin D, inflammation markers, and nutrient deficiencies. These are the factors most linked to stubborn acne.
Are the tests doctor-reviewed and lab-certified?
Yes. All results are generated by CLIA-certified labs and reviewed by licensed medical professionals before they’re shared with you.
Simple & Stress-Free Process
How do I take the test, and is it painful?
The test is a simple finger-prick blood sample you do at home. It’s quick, nearly painless, and takes just a few minutes.
How long does it take to get my results?
Once your sample reaches our lab, you’ll receive your personalized results in about 5–7 business days.
Who will have access to my results?
Only you. Your results are securely delivered to your personal online dashboard. No one else has access unless you choose to share them.
Will I need to visit a doctor after taking this test?
That’s up to you. Our results give you clear, actionable insights. Many customers use their BreakoutLabs results as a roadmap for lifestyle and supplement changes. We offer physicians consultations, customized supplements, and skincare products tailored to what your body needs.
Personalized Results & Action Plan
What happens after I get my results?
You’ll receive a personalized report that explains what each biomarker means and how it may be contributing to your breakouts. From there, you’ll get tailored recommendations on lifestyle, nutrition, and supplements.
How personalized is the plan that comes with my test results?
Every plan is unique to your biology. Instead of generic advice, you’ll see exactly what your body needs based on your hormone, stress, and nutrient levels.
Can this test really help me clear my skin if I’ve already tried everything else?
Yes, because most “solutions” only treat symptoms. This test uncovers the hidden root causes behind your acne, so you finally know what’s driving it and how to fix it from the inside out.
Shipping, Privacy & Guarantee
How discreet is the shipping and packaging?
Very. Your kit arrives in a plain, unbranded package, no one will know what’s inside unless you tell them.
What if the test doesn’t give me answers — is there a guarantee?
Yes. If the BreakoutLabs test doesn’t provide you with meaningful insights about your skin, we’ll refund your money. Our mission is to give you clarity, not waste your time or money.
