Acne. Pimples. Blemishes. No matter what you call them, acne can be distressing and persistent. Acne lesions heal slowly and when one begins to resolve, others seem to crop up. As many as three out of four teenagers have experienced acne to some extent. While most people outgrow acne in their late teens and early twenties, many continue to be affected much longer.
Acne occurs when the hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. When your body produces an excess amount of oil and dead skin cells, the two can build up in the hair follicle and form together to create a blemish. Breakouts have a life span of 2-4 weeks. The start of a skincare regimen will treat active superficial breakouts, then move to preventing future breakouts. A continued skincare program is important to rid your skin of acne.
After years of battling acne, sometimes we are left with the aftermath of acne scarring. Acne scarring can be bothersome. There are multiple treatments to help address superficial scarring and also treatments for more aggressive scarring.
