@skinnhausaesthetics: Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. Causing whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. It is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages. Depending on its severity, it can cause emotional distress and scar the skin. Effective acne treatments are available, but acne can be persistent. The earlier you start treatment, the lower your risk of such problems.
