Acne is a skin condition that is caused by the oil glands in your skin becoming clogged.
Acne is a very common skin disorder that affects many people. It usually starts in puberty and can last through adulthood.
Acne usually appears on the face, neck, chest, back and shoulders. Acne can be very painful and embarrassing for the sufferer.
There are four main factors that contribute to the development of acne:
-Genetics: The tendency to develop acne is inherited from one's parents.
-Hormones: Hormones such as testosterone and estrogen can cause increased oil production, which can lead to clogged pores and inflammation.
-Environmental Factors: Stress, diet, medications, or other environmental factors can influence how often someone breaks out.
-Bacteria on Skin Surface: Bacteria on the skin surface can trigger an inflammatory response in some people which leads to pimples or cysts.
The good news is that there are plenty of acne treatments available to help get rid of acne and improve your skin condition.
