👉 Pimples, also known as acne, arise from a combination of factors including excess oil production, clogged pores, bacterial infection, and inflammation. When hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells, bacteria can multiply, leading to inflammation and the formation of pimples. These can manifest as whiteheads (closed comedones) or blackheads (open comedones), depending on whether the pore is closed or open to the air, respectively. Hormonal changes, genetics, stress, and certain medications can also contribute to acne development. Proper skincare routines, including cleansing, exfoliating, and using non-comedogenic products, can help manage and reduce the occurrence of pimples.
