Acne is a disorder that causes outbreaks of skin lesions usually called spots or pimples. It is a rather common disease, actually the most common skin disease that doctors come across. Acne usually affects young adults and teenagers more than any other age group. In fact acne is so common in teens that it's thought to be a normal part of adolescence. Acne is not a really serious health threat but, it can lead to scarring. Of course it can affect you at any age.

The most often found type of acne is Acne Vulgaris which means common acne". The worst type of acne is made up of cysts (sacs) and nodules (swelling). Perioral dermatitis is the strain of acne which the younger woman can suffer from. Another sort of acne " acne mechanica " is the result of physical irritation to certain areas of the body, either resulting in or aggravating previous acne. Your dermatologist will decide upon the best type of treatment for your particular case of acne. The type of treatment that you undergo should depend upon the type of acne with which you are afflicted. Having a severe strain of acne when you are a youngster can do some damage to your psyche and self- confidence. The worst type of acne may even result in scarring that if not dealt with properly, could be visible for the rest of your life.

Why do we have spots? The main cause of acne is the production of sex hormones, called androgen, that start at puberty. Changes of hormonal levels in the various stages of pregnancy can also cause acne. Bacterial infection of clogged hair follicles is one of the main triggers of a bout of acne. New research states that milk can also be a cause of acne. We all know that vitamins are good for you, but too much of the three B vitamins can result in acne flare-ups. There is no one simple cause of acne, the condition is caused by many different factors, several of which you can do very little about. Most medical experts still say that the exact cause of acne is not known.

Acnezine is a scientifically prepared treatment made to get rid of acne through a revolutionary antioxidant method. Of late, the FDA has put their seal of approval on several different lasers for the treatment of acne. Light Therapy, although relatively new, has been demonstrated to be a useful treatment against the pain in the butt which is acne. You may be lucky and come across a new treatment that works great with your skin type and acne condition. At the end of the day a licensed medical person should always be seen for diagnosis and treatment of any medical condition.
