Acne Treatment

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and sometimes bacteria. This can lead to pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, cysts, or nodules. Acne usually appears on the face, but it can also occur on the chest, back, and shoulders. Acne is a common skin condition which affects most people at some point. Over 80% of people between the ages of 11 and 30 will be affected by acne in the UK.

It often happens during puberty due to hormonal changes, but it can affect people of all ages. Factors like stress, certain medications, and genetics can also contribute to acne. There are different treatments available, ranging from over-the-counter products to prescription medications, depending on the severity.
