Acne isn't a skin problem. It's a biology problem.
Different imbalances leave different fingerprints on your face. Your breakouts aren't random — they're a map of what's happening inside. Click each pillar to see where it shows up.
01
Hormones
73% of adult acne
We measure testosterone, DHEA-S, and SHBG — the key hormones sabotaging your skin. Most people never get tested.
02
Metabolism
81% show early insulin issues
We test insulin & HbA1c to uncover metabolic inflammation keeping your skin reactive and oily.

Stress
Cortisol-driven inflammation
Chronic stress keeps your skin in a constant flare state. We measure cortisol to see if your body is stuck in inflammation mode.
04
Nutrients
Vitamin D deficiency
Low Vitamin D weakens repair and increases inflammation. We test your levels to uncover gaps sabotaging your skin's recovery.

Common Questions
Everything you're about to ask.
Yes. Your dermatologist looks at your skin. We look at your blood. The 8 biomarkers we test — testosterone, DHEA-S, fasting insulin, HbA1c, Vitamin D, SHBG, and cortisol — are the internal signals driving breakouts. Most dermatologists don't run any of them before writing a prescription. Our test closes that gap.
Your kit arrives in discreet packaging within 3-5 days. You do a simple finger-prick collection in about 5 minutes (we walk you through it). Drop it in the prepaid mailer, and your sample goes to a CLIA-certified lab. Physicians review every result. Your Clear Skin Blueprint lands in your portal within 14 days of sample receipt.
Every Blueprint comes with our 60-day money-back guarantee. If you don't feel your results give you a clear, actionable path forward, we refund you — no questions, no fine print. 90.5% of our users saw visible improvement within 5-8 weeks of following their Blueprint.
Because you've been trying treatments without knowing what you're actually treating. That's like taking medication without a diagnosis. The Blueprint doesn't replace treatments — it tells you which treatments are right for your biology. Some customers learn their meds were correct; others learn they needed a completely different approach.
Yes. Both tiers are eligible for FSA and HSA spending accounts. We provide a receipt with the proper medical coding at checkout. If your provider needs additional documentation, our support team will send whatever you need.
Yes. Blueprint customers get unlimited in-portal messaging with our physician team plus a scheduled 1:1 video consultation. Ask follow-up questions, clarify protocols, and get support throughout your journey. No extra appointments or copays.
The test is suitable for teens 13+ with parental consent. We have specific Blueprint guidance for adolescent patterns. During pregnancy, biomarker ranges shift significantly and the test isn't recommended. Talk to your physician if you're nursing or planning to conceive soon.
We recommend retesting 90 days after starting your Blueprint to verify what's moved. Blueprint customers get discounted retests and progress tracking in their portal. Watching your biomarkers actually improve on paper is the most motivating part of the whole process for most users.
