Solution
An overdrive of oil glands during adolescence leads to blockage of skin pores. This leads to the formation of acne or pimples due to microbial activity. It is a common phenomenon and adolescents should not lose confidence or feel depressed about it. The excessive pimple outbreak is only a passing phase and will be cured with age.
Effective prevention includes:
- washing your face twice a day and after sweating
- being gentle with your skin by avoiding harsh scrubs
- don’t pick or pop!
- if you have to, use safe extraction methods with a qualified dermatologist
- routinely washing things that come in contact with your skin
- using non-comedogenic products
- checking your hair care ingredients
- staying hydrated
