👉 Apart pimples, also known as comedones, are a common type of acne lesion that form when hair follicles become clogged with sebum (oil) and dead skin cells. This blockage creates a small, often painful bump on the skin's surface. There are two main types: open comedones, which appear as blackheads due to the oxidation of sebum at the surface, and closed comedones, which look like white or flesh-colored bumps beneath the skin. These pimples typically develop in areas with high oil production and can be exacerbated by factors like hormonal changes, stress, and certain skincare products. Treatment often involves addressing these underlying causes through topical or oral medications, lifestyle changes, and gentle skincare routines to prevent further clogging and inflammation.
