Acne

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples.

Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages. The psychological effect of acne is often over looked, but not here. I appreciate the distress it can cause and how important treatment is.

It is important to remove cell build-up in the pores to allow treatment products to penetrate and destroy P. acnes bacteria. Salicylic acid and lactic acid are examples of exfoliating ingredients known to improve acne.
