👉 Acne, often referred to as pimples, occurs when hair follicles become clogged with dead skin cells and excess oil. When pores become blocked, bacteria can multiply, leading to inflammation and the formation of pimples. This process is exacerbated by factors like hormonal changes, genetics, and stress, which can increase oil production and trigger breakouts. Common types include blackheads (open comedones), whiteheads (closed comedones), and inflammatory acne like papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Proper skincare routines, including cleansing, exfoliating, and using non-comedogenic products, can help manage and reduce the occurrence of pimples.
