What is Acne?
Acne is a chronic skin condition that often appears on the face, back, chest, or shoulders. It’s caused by blocked pores, excess oil production, inflammation, and sometimes bacteria. While it’s most common in teenagers, adults can experience acne too. Hormones, stress, and skincare products can also play a role.


What Are the Symptoms of a Acne?
Symptoms vary but often include:
Blackheads or whiteheads
Red pimples (papules)
Pus-filled spots (pustules)
Large, painful lumps under the skin (nodules or cysts)
Scarring or pigmentation in severe or long-standing cases
