Acne & Acne Scarring
WHAT IS ACNE?
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become blocked with oil, dead skin cells and bacteria.
It can present as blackheads, whiteheads, pustules, cysts or nodules, and can range from mild to severe.
While it most commonly affects the face, acne can also appear on the back, chest and shoulders. It often begins during adolescence but can persist well into adulthood – especially due to hormonal changes, stress, or genetics.

WHAT CAUSES ACNE?
There’s no single cause of acne, but contributing factors can:
- Excess sebum (oil) production
- Hormonal fluctuations
- Bacterial imbalance
- Poor skincare habits
- Stress and inflammation
- Genetic predisposition
When left untreated, deeper lesions may lead to long-term scarring, discolouration and textural changes in the skin.

UNDERSTANDING ACNE SCARRING
Acne scars form when inflammation damages the skin’s deeper layers during the healing process.
This can result in uneven texture, pitted areas (atrophic scars), raised scars (hypertrophic or keloid), or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Treating both active acne and the visible effects it leaves behind requires a comprehensive, tailored approach.
