Acne, more commonly known as pimples, is a simple looking disease that arrives so casually and unexpectedly, that you usually don’t see it coming until you look in the morning mirror. Although most commonly found on the face, your entire body can be a playground for acne. Severe cases of acne are capable of leaving cuts, scars and marks on the skin. When it comes to acne, the saying “Don’t pop it” is the best one to follow.

Usually referred to as pimples, the scientific name for acne is acne vulgaris. Adults tend to have a notion that acne is the teenager’s malady, only it’s not. The majority of scientists and researchers believe that skin pores get clogged, caused by the accumulation of fatty material from the sebaceous gland and bacteria, forming red pus filled bumps called pimples.
Does Acne Affect All Pores?
No, all pores do not experience the acne affect. Why? The reasons are not known. Yet scientists and researchers continue to explore the causes of acne. Although there are plenty of myth-mongers who would like you to believe that acne will infect all your pores, there is no scientific evidence that this is the case.
The Zit Popping Habit
The habit of popping zits to quickly eliminate the pus filled embarrassment is not a good one to get into. Consistent popping, picking, and scratching at acne can cause acne scars. Acne pimples should be left alone to clear on their own, rather than popped.
The Acne Teenagers’ Malady Left Behind
Though the pimples look the same as when you were a teenager, adult acne breakouts are different from the kind you suffered in your middle and high school years. Adult acne usually occurs on the lower half of the face, while teenage acne typically shows up on the upper half of the face. In addition, adult acne is typically much deeper under the skin and appears as cysts, which can’t be easily drained on their own.
Those clogged pores that you had as a teenager that became inflamed and resulted in redness, pus and, ultimately, blackheads and whiteheads along your hairline and forehead, are never left behind. As adults we’re just as susceptible to bacteria and clogged pores as we were when we were teenagers. Acne is not just a teenager’ malady, it can be an adult one too![/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
