WE ARE ACNE SPECIALISTS!
Types of Acne
There are several different types of acne, each with its own unique characteristics. Some of the most common types of acne include:
- Whiteheads
Whiteheads are small, round bumps that form when pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells.
- Blackheads
Blackheads are small, dark bumps that form when pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. The dark color is caused by the buildup of melanin in the skin.
- Papules
Papules are small, red bumps that form on the skin. They are typically tender to the touch and can be quite painful.
- Pustules
Pustules are similar to papules but contain pus. They are often referred to as "zits."
- Nodules
Nodules are large, painful bumps that form beneath the surface of the skin. They can be quite stubborn and may take several weeks to heal.
- Cysts
Cysts are large, pus-filled bumps that form beneath the surface of the skin. They are typically quite painful and can lead to scarring if not treated properly.
