What is acne?

Acne is a common skin condition indicated by comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and pus-filled areas (pustules). It commonly begins throughout puberty. Acne ranges from some spots on the neck, face, back, and chest, which most teenagers will experience at some point, to a more serious problem that can result in scars and lower self-confidence.

What causes acne?

Acne is formed when small pores in the skin, called hair follicles, get blocked. Hair follicles have sebaceous glands, which are small glands located on the skin’s surface, attached to them. When these glands produce excessive sebum, the follicles become blocked, resulting in acne.

Signs & Symptoms of Acne

The symptoms of acne often begin with a plugged pore, which then causes a lesion on the skin. It can range from non-inflamed bumps and blackheads to inflamed, red pimples and pustules. Acne usually appears on the forehead, face, chest, upper back and shoulders.

Does what I eat affect my acne?

You may have heard that having greasy food, dairy products, or sweets can cause acne. That is, for the most part, not the case. The hormones that trigger the oil glands and produce sebum, which blocks or clogs pores, are the primary cause of acne. No matter what you eat, major hormonal changes occur. However, what you eat may affect your acne. According to research, eating many simple sugars and non-fat dairy products can make your acne worse.
