Acne is an inflammatory skin disorder characterized by pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. I am pretty sure ya'll know how you can get acne and the majority of yall dont get it cause you just hit puberty. But heres some info on how acne occurs: It ussually arises at puberty, when the body dramatizically increases its production of androgens (male sex hormones). These hormones stimulate the production of keratin (a type of protein) and sebum (an oily skin lubricant). If sebum is secreted faster than it can move through the pores,a blemish arises. The escess oil makes the pores sticky, allowing bacteria to become trapped inside. Blakcheads form when the sebum combines with skin pigments and plug the pores. If scales below the skin pigments become filled with sebum, whitehaeds appear. Now, since were done with the nasty description... heres how you would treat it using alternative methods such as herbs and other natural compunds.
