What is acne and why does it happen?

Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages but is particularly prevalent among teenagers and young adults. It occurs when hair follicles, or pores, become blocked with oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria. Sebum is a natural oily substance produced by sebaceous glands to keep the skin hydrated. However, when produced in excess, it can mix with other materials and clog the pores. This leads to inflammation and the development of spots, blackheads, whiteheads, and sometimes more severe lesions like cysts. We speak to a leading dermatologist who explains the various types, management options and lifestyle options which can control it.
