Acne & Acne Scars

Acne is a condition that can arise when there’s an overabundance of bacteria and oil on the skin. Normal oil amounts keep skin healthy, and when hormones are properly balanced, estrogens and androgens work to keep the skin moisturized. However, hormonal imbalances can cause the sebaceous glands on the skin to overproduce oil. This excess oil, combined with anaerobic bacteria, can lead to acne. In many cases, acne is painful, difficult to treat, and can leave permanent scars, but with modern technology, acne and acne scars can be treated with great success.
