Acne and Imperfections
Our solutions to get rid of spots for good!
Acne is the most common skin ailment and it affects around 80% of teenagers (of which 15% with severe acne) and nearly 40% of adults, women in particulier. Red spots, blackheads, whiteheads or inflamations, micro-cysts... its manifestations vary and can erupt at any age.
The appearance of acne is provoked by two principal elements: excessive sebum production by the skin and the influence of a bacteria: Propionibacterium acnes. Sex hormones also contribute to acne processes (the production of sebum is hormone-dependent). Inflammatory, infectious or hormonal, acne must be treated with specially adapted products.
