What is Acne?

Acne is a common skin condition that causes pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and sometimes painful cysts or nodules on the face, back, chest, or shoulders.
It occurs when excess oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria clog the skin’s pores.
While acne is most common during teenage years, it can affect people at any age — including adults.

What Causes Acne?

Acne typically begins during puberty due to hormonal changes, but several other factors can worsen or trigger it.
The main causes include:

  • Excess oil production
  • Clogged pores
  • Bacterial growth on the skin
  • Hormonal fluctuations

Our Acne Treatment Process

Common Triggers

Certain lifestyle and environmental factors can make acne worse, such as:

  • Hormonal fluctuations (puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause)
  • Stress and lack of sleep
  • Oily or comedogenic skincare products
  • Unhealthy diet (especially sugary or dairy-rich foods)
  • Inadequate skin cleansing
  • Touching or picking at pimples, which can lead to scarring
