What is Acne?

Acne is a common skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, blackheads, and cysts. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, often affecting the face, chest, and back. Factors include hormonal changes, overproduction of sebum, bacteria, and genetics. Treatment aims to reduce oil production, speed up skin cell turnover, and treat inflammed follicles.
