Acne is a disorder of the hair follicle and sebaceous gland. Whilst acne is most common in adolescents and young adults, it may also affect adults and can persist for many years. Acne can present in many different ways. It is most commonly seen on the face, neck, chest and back as these areas have a higher number of sebaceous (oil) glands.
Factors contributing to acne include:
• Hormones
• Genetics
• Diet
• Stress
• Infection
• Blockage of the sebaceous gland/follicle
