👉 Acne, commonly referred to as pimples, are a skin condition characterized by various lesions on the face and other areas of the body. They occur when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to inflammation and the formation of red, swollen bumps. Mild acne might present as small, whiteheads or blackheads, while more severe cases can result in painful, inflamed pimples, cysts, and even scarring. Factors like hormonal changes, genetics, diet, and stress can contribute to acne development. Treatment options range from topical medications and oral antibiotics to lifestyle modifications and advanced therapies like chemical peels or laser treatments.
