👉 Australian pimples, also known as cystic acne or nodules, are a severe form of acne characterized by large, painful, and inflamed lesions. These occur when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to bacterial infection. Unlike regular pimples, which are typically small and red, Australian pimples develop deep within the skin, causing pus-filled cysts that can lead to scarring. The infection often results in significant swelling, redness, and pain, sometimes requiring medical intervention to resolve. Preventive measures include maintaining good hygiene, avoiding touching or popping pimples, and using non-comedogenic skincare products to prevent clogged pores.
