ACNE
The mere thought of getting up and finding a large zit on your face on an important day is the greatest fear of most. Acne is a common ailment and affects almost all of us at least in our teens. Sometimes it can continue into adulthood and cause scars and marks that last forever.
Acne usually occurs as red bumps with white peaks also known as pimples or zits. When they subside, dark marks and sometimes pits are left behind, especially on the face. Besides the face, acne is known to affect the shoulders, back, neck, chest, and upper arms.
What causes them?
The main reason for acne is the blocking of the skin pores by oil, dead skin or bacteria.Pores tend to get blocked due to excess oil production, hormonal changes, over scrubbing or exfoliating and sometimes, cosmetic use. These blocked pores eventually lead to pimples.
