This small piece of info was found in skincarephysicians.com. Its short and intresting. I am trying to keep my posts small and efficient – but its not always possible..
Acne develops when one or more of the following occurs: excess sebum production, rapid production of P. acnes, skin cells shed too quickly and/or release of inflammatory substances. For treatment to work it must interfere with what is causing the acne. Todays acne treatments do one or more of the following:
Decrease sebum production
Reduce P. acnes (bacteria)
Normalize skin shedding
Eliminate inflammation
