What Causes Acne?

Acne develops due to multiple internal and external factors:

• Excess sebum (oil) production
• Clogged pores
• Acne-causing bacteria (C. acnes)
• Hormonal imbalance
• Inflammation and skin irritation

Korean treatments focus on controlling oil, reducing bacteria, and calming inflammation.
