Our skin has tiny holes which known as pores that can become obstructed
by bacteria, dirt and oil. When this happens, a pimple develops on the
skin. If this occurs repeatedly then it is known as Acne. Young adults
are most at risk for developing acne during puberty. According to AAD,
2012(American Academy of Dermatology) at any one time, between 40 and 50
million people have this condition.

Acne can be painful and may cause permanent scarring. Fortunately,
there are successful acne treatment for this condition that reduce both
the number of pimples you get and the chance for scarring to occur.

Many different methods exist for acne treatment including antibiotics,
retinoids, antiseborrhein medications, anti-androgen medications,
hormonal treatments, benzoyl peroxide, salicyclic acids, nicotinamide
and keratolytic soaps. They are believed to work in at least 4 different
ways, including: normalizing shedding and sebum production into the
pore to prevent blockage, killing propionibacterium acnes,
anti-inflammatory effects, and hormonal manipulation.
