Acne

Acne is one of the most common skin diseases affecting millions. Acne is a very common condition. Acne is caused by inflammation of the oil glands that over produce sebum oil deep in the skin. In our teenage years many of us have had to deal with this skin condition. Acne can appear as pimples, blackheads or whiteheads that can rob a person of self-confidence and cause anxiety.

Acne can be aggravated by many things such as stress, chocolate, caffeine and low fiber diets. If not treated properly acne can result in depressed or pitted scars.
