Why Do I Have Acne?

If you have acne, you are not alone. Acne is a common skin condition that causes pimples when hair follicles get clogged with sebum, or oil, dead skin cells, dirt, and bacteria. This results in blackheads, whiteheads, and blemishes that can lead to scarring. The most commonly affected areas are the face, neck, back, shoulders, and chest.

Hormones, certain foods, and oily cosmetics or hair products can contribute to excess oil on the skin. It is normal to have occurrences of acne throughout your life, but with a good skincare routine, you can prevent breakouts.

What Are the Latest Treatments for Acne?

Many pimples can be cleared with non-prescription skincare, but you should see your dermatologist for their recommendations for your skin type and treatment for severe and recurring breakouts. If you have acne in Clermont, FL, your dermatologist may recommend one of our innovative treatments, including:

• Facials use extractions and topical treatments to unclog pores and treat acne.
