What is Acne?

Most of us know what Acne is simply because we have had to experience it at one time or another in our lives. But, in case a definition is needed, here is a short one.

Acne is a dermatological term that includes clogged pores, pimples and lumps or cysts that occur on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders, and upper arms. Acne occurs most commonly in teenagers, but is not limited to any age group, afflicting even adults in their forties.

This disease has many varieties, and although none are life threatening, the more severe cases of Acne can be disfiguring, leaving permanent scars on effected areas.

Acne is most common among teenagers, affecting teens between the ages 12 and 17. Usually, these mild cases are cleared up with over-the-counter treatments and the Acne goes away by the early twenties. It should also be noted that although Acne affects both girls and boys equally, there are some distinctions.

Young men are more likely to have severe, long-term Acne while women can have reoccurring or intermittent Acne well into adulthood due to hormonal changes and cosmetics.

I hope that the reader will come away having gained a clearer understanding of Acne in its various forms, and how it can be combated against as well as to reduce its impact upon the lives of those suffering from it. This is by no means an exhaustive list of guides on the subject, but is at the very least, an introduction and some sources upon which to do further study into the causes and cures of Acne in all its forms.
