What Is Acne and How Does It Occur?

Acne is a dermatological condition that occurs because of the increased sebum secretion in the skin. There are many glands that are present in the skin. These glands are actually sebaceous glands and they are present subcutaneously or just under the surface of the skin. The main effect of the sebum is to keep the skin smooth by naturally moisturising the skin. There are minute pores on the skin and it is through these pores that sebum comes to the surface of the skin on the face. At times, however, there is a blockage that can occur in these pores and when the sebum get trapped below the surface of the skin it can lead to acne. There are different types of acne and there is also a variation in the severity of acne that can occur in a person. In some people acne scars can form on the face. The presence of scars on the face of a person can lead to emotional trauma and depression as they are remain on the face long after the acne itself has disappeared.
