👉 Acne, commonly known as pimples, occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. When pores become blocked, bacteria can multiply, leading to inflammation and the formation of pimples. Factors such as hormonal changes, genetics, diet, stress, and certain skincare products can exacerbate this condition. Treatments often involve cleansing the skin regularly to prevent clogging, using non-comedogenic products, applying topical treatments or prescription medications to reduce inflammation and bacteria, and in some cases, professional interventions like chemical peels or laser therapy.
