Acne can occur anywhere on the body, with the most common areas being the face, neck, shoulders, back and chest.

When pores are clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and dirt, they begin to become inflamed and form into small pustules. Although the occurrence of acne does not directly affect physical health, it can cause physical pain. When the overall condition is severe and lasts for a long time, the chance of scarring will also increase.

Acne can be distinguished by the presence or absence of infection symptoms. Blackheads and whiteheads, which are often mentioned, belong to the non-inflammatory stage. When the surrounding acne is stimulated by external factors (bacteria, free fatty acids), an inflammatory reaction occurs and the appearance appears.
