Acne Treatment Overview: Treatment, Causes, Factors, Grades, Procedure, Real Results, Cost, and FAQs

Acne is one of the most psychologically distressing conditions. It affects both teenage groups as well as adults over 30 years as per the best acne specialist doctors in Delhi. Men and women are equally affected by this condition. Affected individuals may be self-conscious and socially isolated. If one is looking for acne treatment, they can consider meeting Dr. Anu Kapoor and Dr. Parmil Kumar Sharma, at CLINIC SKIN ESSENCE.

Acne is multifactorial in origin. The causes of acne as explained by the best dermatologist for Acne in Delhi, include:

  • Genetics: One is more likely to get acne if one of their parents was affected by it. Genes do have a role to play in acne as the number, size, and activity of acne glands are inherited.
  • Oily Skin: Acne is controlled by oil and sebum production on the face. The sebum production dramatically increases after puberty contributing to acne flare-ups seen in teenagers.
  • Bacterial Infection: A bacteria named Propionibacterium acnes is present in the oil glands. It releases certain enzymes which lead to the formation of whiteheads, blackheads, and active acne.
  • Hormonal Influences: Women with POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME (PCOS) are more affected by acne due to the increased levels of male hormones.
