FIRST THINGS FIRST...
What is Acne?
Acne is a common skin condition caused by clogged pores due to excess sebum from sebaceous glands, dead skin cells, and bacteria.
It appears as comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), pimples, or inflamed cystic breakouts, often on the face, chest, back, and shoulders. While acne is often associated with teenagers, it can affect people of all ages. Hormonal imbalance and other triggers can worsen inflammation and acne severity.
Proper skincare with non-comedogenic products helps prevent breakouts and reduce the risk of scarring. Understanding these factors is key to managing acne effectively.
