When we say that everyone’s acne is different, we aren’t just saying that to appease your individuality. The truth is, so many things can influence acne. Some acne is caused by an imbalance of hormones, while others forms of acne can be caused by bacteria on your cell phone. Because there are so many causes of this annoying skin condition, there are also many treatments that may help you fight your troublesome pimples. What works for your friends or family may not be as effective for you, so keep in mind that a little trial and error may be involved before you have clear skin.
Who can be treated?

After all, if your skin doesn’t look healthy, it may not actually be working as it should!
