What Causes Acne?

ABC's of Acne Therapy, by Randy Jacobs, M.D.
A- Assasinate Bacteria
B- Block Oil Production
C-Clear the Plug

Acne starts within the oil glands that open into hair follicles.  The oil glands are usually quiet from birth until early puberty.  Hormones cause them to burst into activity, pouring sebum oil up through the follicles and onto the skin's surface.  "Bad oils" cause the face and nose to be shiny with greasy blackheads.

This acne explosion is more or les normal during adolescent years and most teenagers will have oily facial skin.  As long as the extra oil can freely flow out on to the surface of the skin, the acne prone person will have no major acne complications or scarring.
