Acne is a disorder of the skin’s sebaceous glands that affects over 80% of the population aged 14-30. It is one of the most common skin conditions in teenagers and young adults, but it can occur at any stage of a person’s life – even into late adulthood.
There are several varieties of acne and your doctor will be able to tell you which type you have after examining your skin. It often shows up as whiteheads, blackheads or pimples, and can appear anywhere on the face, scalp, chest and back.
Lynton Lasers hosted a webinar on Tuesday 16th June which investigated what acne is, including some reasons why people may suffer with this condition.
There are effective combinations of treatment available to tackle this tricky and unwanted skin problem.
