MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -What Causes Acne? 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: -It’s common for hormonal teenage acne to start between the ages of 10 and 13 and to last until you’re in your early twenties. However, it can also stick around. Depending on your family’s history and a few other factors, you may experience hormonal acne throughout your adult life.

Detailed explanation-3: -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. Hormonal changes related to pregnancy can also cause acne.
