What You Should Know About Acne
Acne Vulgaris is usually seen at puberty and primarily associated with hormonal changes caused by testosterone and progesterone. These hormones stimulate the sebaceous oil glands in the skin to become larger. This stimulation results in the production of oily sebum which flows to our skin via pores. Basically, these pores are easily blocked and form blackheads and if infected with acne bacteria form pimples or cysts. The greatest density of the sebaceous oil glands are seen mid face (T-zone), mid chest and upper back.
As dermatologists, we score acne according to the number of blackheads, pustules or cysts . Grades I & II (Mild), Grades III (Moderate) and Grade IV (Severe). Scarring occurring in Grades I & II are minimal and in Grades III & IV more probable.
