Colección: Acne
Acne is primarily caused by a combination of factors, including excess oil production, clogged hair follicles (comedones), bacteria, inflammation, and hormonal fluctuations. It commonly occurs during adolescence but can persist into adulthood. Acne typically presents with a variety of lesions, including whiteheads (closed comedones), blackheads (open comedones), papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. These lesions often occur on the face, neck, chest, shoulders, and back. Acne treatment typically involves a combination of topical treatments (e.g., benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, salicylic acid), oral medications, and lifestyle modifications (e.g., proper skin care, avoiding triggers).
