Acne has many causes
both internal and external, as detailed below
Hormonal changes — especially during adolescence, when androgen hormones increase and cause the sebaceous glands to produce more oil
Female hormones during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy or while using birth control pills
A build-up of dead skin cells, which clogs pores and leads to blackheads or whiteheads
Excess oil production by the sebaceous glands, which makes skin oily and more prone to acne
A family history of acne may make a person more likely to develop acne
Skin inflammation can trigger acne
Eating foods high in sugar, carbohydrates or fat may be linked to acne
Stress can prompt the body to produce hormones that cause acne
Using products with pore-clogging ingredients, such as heavy oils, or not removing cosmetics properly
