Acne is also known as pimples, breakouts, blemishes and zits. It is a very common skin condition affecting more than 90% of all teenagers, nearly 50% of all adult women and 25% of all adults. Both males and females of all nationalities are affected by acne, making it one of the most widespread conditions in the world. From the moment we are born, our skin begins a lifelong process of shedding dead cells and producing oil. This shedding process is affected by our hormone balance, which fluctuates throughout our life. Clogged pores andpimples (i.e. acne) arise when these natural processes are disrupted by a range of factors. All acne begins with one basic lesion: the Comedo, an enlarged hair follicle plugged with oil, dead skin cells and bacteria.The Comedo is invisible to the naked eye as it lies beneath the surface of your skin waiting for the right conditions to grow into an inflamed blister. As the skin produces more oil, bacteria flourish within the Comedo. The surrounding skin becomes increasingly inflamed as white blood cells fight against the intruding bacteria. The result is a pimple.
