Acne is a disorder of the hair follicle sebaceous glands, consisting of non-inflammatory lesions (open and closed comedones) and inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules and nodules). Many factors are responsible for the development of acne – sebum excretion, androgenic hormones, occlusions of sebaceous gland pores, and infection with propionibacterium acnes. The development of acne is also influenced by genetic factors, gastrointestinal function, environmental factors, cosmetics, and emotional factors.
