It is not thought of as a medical condition, but acne, affects more people than any other one that is considered a medical ailment. It is estimated that 80% of the population suffers or has suffered from one form of it. Adults can be affected but the majority affected is teenagers.

Acne is usually really visible as the manifest as tiny infections on the skin and blemishes. Whiteheads is one of the type of acne and they derive their name from its visible signs which is the pus that resides on top of the pimple on the surface. This are a result of clogged hair follicle caused by naturally secreted oils and dead cells.

Blackheads are much the same, the only difference is that instead of whitening the surface the surface stays open and darkens which creates a small black spot. Commonly these do not become pimples.


The more painful form is known as cyst and can last longer, they are thick lumps that just below the surface of the skin. This is caused by a more severe infection.. These usually are large and cause swelling and redness.

Although there are many myths about acne the principal cause is bacteria. Skin surface bacteria is different  and grows underneath the skins surface..  The only areas that are affected by acne and become infected are hair follicles and pores. Bacteria buildup is caused by medication, bacteria and hormones.. Heredity may also play a role.


Acne does not cause any physical impediment, however, the psychological effect can be significant.  The main issue for severe acne sufferers is self esteem although this also affects adults,  teenagers are usually the most impacted.  For teenagers and adults dealing with ace is not simple and its two sided issue, the acne itself and the psychological effects.  Its critical that those suffering from acne have emotional support and should be aware that natural acne solutions that will clear acne for good exist.
