Millions of Americans are plagued with the skin disorder
acne, and all are interested in finding ways to prevent acne
from affecting their skin and ways to treat current pimples,
lesions, and scarring. Acne is a skin disorder that results
from increased hormone levels in the body that catalyzes a
production and secretion of increased sebum, or oil through
the skin pores. Acne results when this sebum clogs the pore
and bacteria and dead skin cells from the skins surface
enter the pore. The result is red pimples and lesions on the
skin~s surface that causes embarrassment to all and scarring
and disfigurement to many. Because of this, everyone with
acne is interested in knowing exactly what causes the
lesions and pimples on their faces, backs, necks, and
shoulders.

Doctors and researchers have worked for some time to
pinpoint exactly why some people develop acne while others
do not. While there is no exact answer as of yet, the
medical profession has noted that increased levels of
hormones affect acne. While everyone experiences a time of
increased hormones during either puberty, pregnancy, or with
the starting or stopping of hormone pills, not everyone
develops acne.

So, doctors believe that when hormones raise
the sebum levels on the skin is affected differently from
person to person. It reacts badly in individuals who are
acne prone. Also, acne may have some hereditary issues
because most individuals with acne can pinpoint someone in
the previous generation that had the skin disorder.

Also, acne is not reserved for individuals of a certain race
or age. In fact, anyone can develop acne despite their age
or race. However, typically younger individuals develop acne
because of the many changing hormones. Because of the many
case of acne in Americans, people are really interested in
how to treat it.

Dermatologists are the doctors who treat skin disorders,
including acne. Most of the time dermatologists prescribe
medicated creams to treat the pimples and lesions on the
skin~s surface and occasionally an oral pill as well. The
dermatologist will work with you on your particular case and
which treatment method is best.
