Acne vulgaris, commonly referred to as acne, is a prevalent skin condition that typically begins in adolescence and can persist into adulthood. It manifests as various types of skin blemishes, including blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and sometimes deeper cysts. The development of acne involves excess oil production, blockage of hair follicles, bacterial growth, and inflammation. Hormonal changes, particularly increased levels of androgens, can exacerbate the production of oil, contributing to more severe acne. Treatments for acne vary, ranging from topical creams to oral medications, depending on the severity of the condition. This thesis will explore the underlying causes of acne, its effects on individuals, and the various approaches to managing this widespread but complex skin disorder.
