The oil glands in the skin are stimulated when hormones become active during puberty, which is why so many people get acne in their teenage years. The tendency to develop acne is partly genetic, as well, so if other people in your family had acne, you’re more likely to develop it too. The excess of oil in pores leads to an additional accumulation of dead skin cells and bacteria, which leads to inflammation – that’s acne. While there’s no way to absolutely cure acne, there are a number of proactive acne treatments that reduce the number and severity of your breakouts, as well as acne products available over-the-counter and through your dermatologist.For further information go to our Effective Acne Treatment site
