Acne

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. It typically appears on the face, neck, chest, back, and shoulders, where sebaceous (oil) glands are most active. Acne can manifest as whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, cysts, or nodules, and it affects people of all ages, though it is most prevalent during adolescence. While acne is not a serious health threat, it can cause emotional distress and lead to scarring if not properly treated.
