Acne can be a socially frustrating condition that is believed to be caused by a mix of genetic, hormonal and environmental factors. Although not life-threatening, acne can cause long-term physical and emotional scarring. As the sebaceous oil glands become overactive and blocked, blackheads and whiteheads form. Acne is a problem of these follicles becoming swollen and inflamed.
Acne is most common in teenagers, but it can happen at any age, even in an infant. Three out of four teenagers have some acne. Hormonal changes can lead to increased oil in the skin. However, people in their 30s and 40s may also have acne.
