 Acne - Frequently Asked Questions
- Acne is an inflammatory disease of the hair follicles and sebaceous glands of the skin. Sebaceous glands produce oil to lubricate the skin. If some of the oil becomes trapped, infective bacteria can flourish, causing inflammation. Comedones (blackheads) occur when the sebaceous oil combines with unreleased wastes or skin pigments, to plug the pore. Milia (whiteheads) occur when scales below the surface of the skin become filled with sebaceous oil. They can spread under the skin and rupture, spreading the inflammation. As the spots heal, they often fade to pink and disappear. However, it can leave scars that manifest as small, depressed pits.
