If you’re struggling with acne - don’t worry - it’s a common issue for people of all ages, especially teens and women going through the menopause. Acne happens when you’ve got a hormonal imbalance in the body. Any changes in your hormones cause glands to produce more oil than usual, which then causes your skin pores to get clogged up, allowing bacteria to grow.
So you know why it happens, but we all know it doesn’t end there. If you’ve tried to take things into your own hands, and got impatient, you’ll know that acne can sometimes leave scarring after a bad breakout.
