Clearing Up the Myths About Acne
Acne is a disease of the sebaceous glands, and occurs when
the oil produced by the glands (to soften and lubricate the
hair and skin) is trapped in tiny pores or follicles. Whiteheads,
blackheads and pimples are the result. Acne can be caused
by a number of factors including heredity and hormonal changes.
It is not caused by foods you eat and is not cured by over-the-counter
scrubs or creams. It is important to note that acne may not
be confined to the face, and that it affects not only teenagers,
but adults as well. If left untreated acne can leave permanent
scars.
The good news is that acne is very treatable and controllable.
While all acne may look the same, there are subtle but significant
differences that only an experienced professional can identify,
making all the difference in the success of your individual
treatment plan.
