Acne is a common skin condition that happens when hair follicles under the skin become clogged. Sebum—oil that helps keep skin from drying out—and dead skin cells plug the pores, which leads to outbreaks of lesions, commonly called pimples or zits.
There are four main types of pimples: papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Papules and pustules can be treated at home. Try a benzoyl peroxide cleanser or a salicylic spot treatment. Nodules and acne cysts may require help from a dermatologist
Which treatment is best for acne?
Benzoyl peroxide: This acne-fighter is especially effective at treating mild pimples. While you'll find products that contain up to 10% benzoyl peroxide, it's best to start with a product that contains 2.5%. That will help you avoid side effects like dry, irritated skin or a burning sensation.
