Acne vulgaris (AV) is a condition of the oil glands that can cause any one or a mix of the following -
Open and closed comedones(blackheads and whiteheads)
inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules, and nodules)
Varying degrees of scarring
The causes of Acne Vulgaris are complicated. Four key pathogenic processes lead to the formation of acne
Alteration of keratinization around follicles that leads to comedones
Increased and altered oil production under hormone (mainly androgen) control
Infection of the follicles by Propionibacterium acnes
Complex inflammatory mechanisms
Treatment of Acne Vulgaris should target all four pathogenic mechanisms.
