Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. It typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, and cysts, primarily on the face, back, and shoulders. Treatment options include:
Topical treatments: Over-the-counter creams containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can reduce inflammation and bacteria.
Oral medications: Antibiotics can help reduce bacteria and inflammation. Hormonal treatments might be prescribed for females with hormonal acne.
Isotretinoin: A powerful medication for severe cases that reduces oil production and prevents clogged pores.
Professional treatments: Chemical peels, laser therapy, and extraction procedures performed by dermatologists.
