Body Acne and Scarring
Acne is a skin condition that can affect all ages and all skin types. There are many components that contribute to the cause of acne, such as excess oil production, free radicals, and dead skin cell build up. Body acne is very common, especially in those who are already having acne issues in the facial region. But you do not have to have acne issues on the face to develop body acne issues. Sweat, dirt, and dead skin cell build up play a big role in the production of body acne.
Acne Scarring can present itself in many different ways. Indentations, textural changes and pigmentation are all common indications of damaged skin. Acne scarring on the chest/ back area is very common, even more so when there has been issues with cystic breakouts.
