As long as you’re human, acne is pretty much inescapable: experts estimate it affects up to 𝟗𝟎% 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭. Which makes it surprising to realize that many of us don’t have a clue that there are different types of acne let alone why that even matters. The variety of acne vulgaris (aka common acne) that a person has is the key to choosing the right treatment.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐜𝐧𝐞?
All types of acne start inside the pores, which contain a hair follicle and a sebaceous gland that produces sebum, our skin’s natural oil. The body is constantly regenerating and shedding dead cells, but when those dead skin cells get trapped within the sebum of our skin, they combine to create non-inflammatory acne. If bacteria is present on the skin, it can combine with the dead cells and oil and cause an infection, otherwise known as inflammatory acne.
