Acne Vulgaris, aka ‘pimple’ is a common skin problem which is the product of the clogging of dead skin cells and oil on one’s pores, resulting to swelling, and redness of the pore. It may occur on the face, neck, chest and even one’s back. It can also grow into big, red lumps which are much more painful.
Acne is very common among teenagers, usually brought by puberty. During puberty, hormone changes occur, and that can result to oilier skin. Acne is also hereditary, if one member of the family had severe acne, their children will most likely to have it as well.
