      What are the common causes of acne?<\/h2>\n

      The skin develops acne when its pores get filled with oil, bacteria, and dead skin. The skin pore opens to a follicle. This follicle is made of sebaceous glands and hair. Sebaceous is the oil gland that releases sebum (oil) to make the skin soft. But some type of mishap on the skin’s softness leads to acne. The skin develops acne when:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Dead skin cells accumulate in the pores<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. Follicles are producing extra oil<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. Pores get filled with bacteria<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Any of these conditions can cause pimples. The bacteria grow inside the clogged pore and lead to acne issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        Risk factors to develop acne<\/h2>\n

        Several factors can increase the chances of getting acne. Not only dust or oil but some physical and mental cause can also increase the risk of developing acne.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        4. Smoking<\/span><\/li>\n

        7. Medications like lithium, birth control, steroids, etc<\/span><\/li>\n
        8. Genes<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Getting acne is very common during puberty. During puberty, the body faces lots of hormonal changes. These changes often trigger extra oil production that causes acne. This acne problem improves when a person reaches adulthood.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

          Certain diets can also cause acne-like dairy products, processed meats, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n
