Our approach
Acne is not an infection on the skin but rather an internal imbalance that needs to be addressed.
This is a metabolically supportive acne program where:
- We don’t restrict large groups of food
- We don’t have a huge supplement stack of synthetic vitamins
- We don’t rely on skincare or medication to keep acne at bay
We are getting to the true root cause. By the end of the program, you’ll have all the tools you need to break the acne cycle. Knowledge is power.

FAQs
What is included in the program?
The program includes 5 video modules: Nutrition, Stress, Detox, Digestion and Hormones; 5 ‘What To Do Now’ protocols with proven nutrition, supplement and lifestyle solutions for acne; and root cause identification.
What extra tutorials, guides and recipes are included?
Video tutorials cover lymphatic dry brushing, EFT tapping, vagus nerve stimulation and ileocecal valve release. Guides cover skincare, exercise, blood sugar, identifying stressors, coffee enemas and liver GB flushes. Clear skin recipes, meal plans and grocery lists are also included.
Are supplement and product discounts included?
Yes. The program includes discounts to Katie approved supplements and products.
is it pregnancy/breastfeeding safe?
About half the program is pregnancy safe, and everything is clearly marked so you know exactly what to implement. A lot of women do part of it while they're pregnant and the rest after birth, so their skin stays clear through both.
Do you offer payment plans?
There are no payment plans available but it is priced to be affordable for most as a one time purchase!
How long will it take to complete?
Once registered, you have the program content forever (including all future updates) so there is no set time frame for completion. You can take as long or as little as you need!
Who can join?
It’s applicable for men, women and teens/children worldwide! We even have many pregnant and breastfeeding women join as we always list what is and isn’t safe for them. We also provide product recommendations from companies all over the world to keep your shipping costs low.
How does it differ from other acne programs?
This is the first and only comprehensive “pro metabolic” acne program. Most skin clearing programs will immediately tell you to cut dairy and sugar or will preach fish oil and zinc supplements and give you a long intensive skincare routine. Not here! We get to the root of acne rather than suppressing it temporarily.
Does it only work for acne?
Nope! Although the main focus is clearing acne, this program is very comprehensive. Katie designed The Acne Solution to teach you how to get to the root cause and reverse basically any skin condition along with other imbalances. This is because your skin is a reflection of all internal inflammation. Acne is a symptom that rarely shows up alone.
Is the community included?
Yes. The Community now comes with The Acne Solution at no extra cost. You can message Katie any time with your health questions, and connect with other students who are clearing their skin too.
Can I claim this purchase through insurance?
You may be able to request reimbursement from your insurance provider after purchase. Eligibility depends on your policy and provider. Check with your insurer before purchasing; reimbursement is not guaranteed.
Can I get a refund?
This program is FINAL SALE. No refunds or exchanges will be granted under any circumstance.
