What is Acne?

Acne is a skin disorder which involves the pilosebaceous units and is characterized by the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules (pimples), pustules (spots containing pus) and sometimes even nodules and cysts (deep spots), which appear mainly on the face and upper part of the trunk, although they are also localized in glutes and thighs.

What causes Acne?

Acne occurs as a result of several factors: an alteration in the keratinisation of the hair follicle, an overproduction of sebum and the bacterial overgrowth of a micro-organism called propionibacterium acnes, among other causes.
