What is Acne?
Acne begins in the sebaceous hair follicles, commonly known as pores. Glands in these follicles produce oil, called sebum, to moisturize skin. Skin regenerates constantly and during this process, dead skin sloughs off to make way for new skin cells. In the case of acne sufferers, skin cells do not shed evenly and plug pores, trapping oil and, often bacteria. As the body tries to fight infection, a pimple is formed. While genetics provide a good indication of who is going to suffer from acne, there are many other factors that determine the severity, complexity and duration of acne in individuals. Acne often begins during puberty and can flare during other periods of hormonal imbalance, including menstruation and pregnancy. Bacteria, inflammation and an overabundance of sebum are also primary culprits for break-outs.
