Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition, is a relentless adversary that can affect individuals of all ages. It typically arises when hair follicles become clogged with a combination of oil and dead skin cells. The result? Unsightly pustules, blackheads, cysts, and even scarring.
The causes and triggers of acne can vary, making it a complex concern to address. Potential contributors include hormonal fluctuations, digestive issues, excess sebum secretion, stress, medication, climatic conditions, cosmetic ingredients that irritate the skin, genetics, and more.

The causes and triggers of acne are diverse and may vary from person to person. From hormonal imbalances to medication and climate conditions, understanding these contributing factors is crucial in treating acne effectively.
