Acne - What Exactly Is Acne?
What causes acne?Acne occurs when the hair follicle pores become blocked. The oil called sebum builds up inside the pore and becomes infected with bacteria. When the infection remains under the skin surface, it develops into a whitehead. When the infection partly reaches the surface and changes color, it develops into a blackhead.Shouldn't I just try to eliminate sebum from my body?No. When it isn't blocked in your pores, sebum helps keep your skin healthy.Why does acne usually start at puberty?No one knows for certain. What is known is that the sebaceous glands that produce sebum get much larger at puberty than they were before.Why does the skin around a pimple turn red?This redness is caused by the body's inflammatory respons... |  |

There are many over-the-counter adult acne treatments to unblock pores, reduce bacteria and dry out pimples. They contain the acids or antibiotics benzoyl peroxide (such as Neutrogena On-The-Spot), salicylic acid (such as Stri-dex), sulfur or resorcinol (such as Clearasil Adult Care).

Shampoo your hair daily, especially if it’s oily, and tie it back so it’s out of your face. Avoid touching your face. Take a look at your cosmetics and creams. They should be water-based or ""non-comedogenic"" formulas. Take off all make-up at night. Maintain a ... | |
