What is Acne? A Spot-On Explanation
All Acne isn’t Equal
In a nutshell, Acne vulgaris (the medical term for common acne), is what happens when hair follicles get blocked. Around the root of each hair, beneath the surface of the skin, are the oil-producing sebaceous glands. These glands can overproduce oil and seal the follicle at or beneath its pore, causing a buildup of bacteria and inflammation. Breakouts can vary in severity, and being able to identify each type will help in treating acne appropriately.-
