Acne Medication Treatments

One thing that can lead to acne is stress. Why? Because it makes your hormone levels go haywire and that increases the production of oil which ends up setting in motion everything that leads to, you guessed it: acne. That means you’ve got to try to work on your stress levels while also finding a medication that will help breakouts.

Remember when your mom used to say greasy foods or chocolate caused pimples? Sometimes I hear people my age say the same thing. Pimples are caused by pores that get blocked by dirt and dead skin cells. When the oil builds up in the follicle, it starts to bulge and become a pimple (or blemish as my mother used to say).
