What Is Acne and What Causes It?
While we tend to think of acne solely as the term for the red pimples that typically first start presenting themselvesin our early teenage years, the name is actually a scientific term that describes a number of skin issues. Acne is theterm that refers not only to pimples, but to blackheads, whiteheads, and other nodules and blemishes on the skin.While acne is most commonly seen on the face, it can also occur on the shoulders, back, neck, buttocks, or chest.What we commonly refer to as a pimple is actually a whitehead that has ruptured.Why and How Does Acne Develop?Throughout the years, many explanations have been offered for why people develop acne. Hormones, diet,temperament, and even behavior have been blamed for the condition. While many of these causes have beenproven to have little to no effect on the outbreak of acne, the cause is still somewhat of a mystery. The most likelyscenario is that a number of factors play into the condition.The most basic cause of acne is the overproduction of sebum, which is a waxy substance that is responsible forlubricating the skin. When too much sebum is produced, hair follicles become blocked as it mixes with dead skincells, forming a sort of plug. Blocked follicles have no way of releasing bacteria, which will grow inside them andcause blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, or even cysts.While factors such as hormones and possibly diet work together in different ways depending on the individual tocause acne, treatment is a bit easier to figure out. The ultimate goal of acne treatment is to lower the production ofsebum. There are a number of ways to achieve this, and the key to total acne treatment is a balanced skin care, diet,and health regimen.SummaryIn essence, acne is little more than clogged pores. While this sounds simple to treat, however, there is much thatshould be done. First, you will need to take a look at your diet and skin care habits. If you have severe acne thatcauses scarring or pain, you sh ould also take the time to speak with a dermatologist.In the chapters that follow, we will examine a number of treatments for acne. We will also take a look into the factsand myths regarding diet and the role that it plays in the condition. Acne can be a very stressful condition, but onceyou know how to treat it from both the inside and the outside, you can be on the path to clear, healthy skin that willlast a lifetime.
