CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Acne is caused by overactive oil glands in the skin and a buildup of oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, which leads to inflammation (swelling and redness) in the pores. Oil glands get stimulated when hormones become active during puberty. That’s why people are likely to get acne in their teens.

Detailed explanation-2: -Boys will also have hair growth on their face, under their arms, and on their legs. As the puberty hormones increase, teens may have an increase in oily skin and sweating. This is a normal part of growing. It’s important to wash daily, including the face.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sebaceous glands lubricate the hair and the skin to stop it drying out. They do this by producing an oily substance called sebum. In acne, the glands begin to produce too much sebum. The excess sebum mixes with dead skin cells and both substances form a plug in the follicle.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hormones. An increase in androgens, which are male sex hormones, may lead to acne. These increase in both boys and girls normally during puberty and cause the sebaceous glands to enlarge and make more sebum.
