What is Acne?

Acne is an uncomfortable skin condition that is identified by blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, cysts or nodules that appear mostly on the face. The blocked skin pores and deeper inflammations result in acne. Acne can form on chest, shoulders, upper arms, back, and neck as well. Acne is usually suffered by teenagers, but it is not limited to any age group. Many adults in their 20s and even 40s have reported to be its victims. Although, the life of the victim is not at risk by acne, but it has been reported to be the cause of some suicides as the humiliation of the acne victims sometimes gets so high that the sufferers can’t bear. If acne is severe, it can leave permanent scarring. If acne is mild, there is still a possibility of scarring, of the low severity though. If you or someone you know are/is suffering from acne, knowing the causes of acne can be exceptionally great information for your war on acne.

What Causes Acne?

There is not an alone factor that causes acne. Dermatologists describe that when the sebaceous glands (the oil producing glands under the skin) start producing excessive oil (sebum) during adolescence, acne appear. The adrenal glands of both males and females produce such hormones that arouse the sebaceous glands to produce excessive sebum. Although the sebum lubricates and protects the skin by getting secreted through openings in the skin, but dead skin cells near the openings get mixed with sebum and block the apertures. As a result, skin gets a build up of oil just under it and bacteria love it. They get in huge number in their favorite environment and inflame the tissues. Pimple is the result of this very inflammation if happens close to the skin surface. A whitehead is the result of the breakout of sebum onto the skin surface. The same surfaced sebum in the form of a whitehead, if gets oxidized, it changes its color from white to black, and it is called blackhead.
