Best Acne Scar Treatment In Delhi India

one is a skin condition, which involves oil glands, present at the base of the hair follicles. Acne usually appears at puberty when the oil glands become active under the influence of androgens (male sex hormones). The areas which are commonly affected are the face, back, and chest. Acne is commonly seen in teenagers but can persist well into adulthood. Side effects of certain medications may also cause acne.

There are two categories of Acne:

1. Non-inflamed acne – presents with whiteheads and blackheads
2. Inflamed acne – presents with papules or red bumps, pustules, or in severe cases, nodules and cysts. Most of the time both types of acne coexist.

Acne can leave scars on your face and shake your confidence for life. While good personal hygiene is important, it is, unfortunately, not a cure for acne, nor are the home remedies. You must consult a dermatologist for treating acne and preventing scarring.
