How Does Acne Form

Human skin is a complex multilayered organ. Glands that secrete oil or sebum are called sebaceous glands and are a part of the skin. Irregular functioning of this gland is the main culprit behind the formation of acne.

When the sebaceous glands produce too much oil, the oil comes to the surface of the skin and gets deposited in the oil sacs. Continuous secretion of oil saturates these sacks, which expand to accommodate the excess oil. Ultimately, it becomes too much for the oil to contain and they open up. This leads to pore enlargement, a common characteristic for people with oily skin.

Oil or sebum, which deposits on the surface of the skin gradually thickens and hardens. When this is exposed to air, it undergoes oxidation and becomes black. Thus form unsightly black dots on the face are what you call nlackheads. Blackheads are the first step in the formation of acne. These tiny blackheads, if left unattended for a long time, get infected and this leads to inflammation of the surrounding areas. The swollen irritants on the skin lead to

pimple formation and finally acne.  

Acne, therefore, can be defined as the final result of the over activity of the sebaceous glands in the skin. Usually, acne develops on the face. For some people, it spreads to the neck, back, shoulders and upper arms. These pus filled inflammations on the skin are painful. Some people experience an extreme outbreak of painful acne all over the face, this conditin is called acne vulgaris. It has to be treated immediately as it carries the risk of turing septic.
