I. Overview :
Acne is a skin condition that happens when oil and dead skin cells clog the hair follicles. It induces pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads. Teenagers are the most affected by acne, but it affects people of all ages. While there are successful acne remedies available, acne can be stubborn.
Active breakouts are aggravating enough, but the scars left behind by acne can be downright annoying. Acne wounds may be healed, which is good news. However, before you can begin treatment, you must first remove all acne for good results, as new breakouts can result in new acne scars.
Some of the scar treatments can’t be used in conjunction with traditional acne drugs, and the inflammation caused by breakouts can make treatment less effective.
