Yet the breakouts keep coming. Maybe they cluster around your chin before your period, or perhaps they have been with you since your teenage years and simply never left. Acne is one of the most common skin concerns we see at Aesthetics by Dr Rachel, affecting people well into their twenties, thirties, forties and beyond.","9551510c-7e7c-4050-86b6-7d7743d053b7":"ebd5cb","fb812f21-7614-47e0-b55a-8ed5607b5f4b":false,"c38db626-85ba-4201-9240-e8c2b19beb5e":"<h2>\n    <span style=\"background-color:transparent;color:hsl(203,34%,27%);\"><i>What Is Acne?</i></span>\n</h2>\n<p>\n     \n</p>\n<p>\n    <span style=\"background-color:transparent;color:#333333;\">Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. It is not just the occasional spot before a big event. It is a medical condition that can persist for months or years, affecting your skin, your confidence and your daily life. </span>\n</p>\n<p>\n     \n</p>\n<p>\n    <span style=\"background-color:transparent;color:#333333;\">The condition can take many forms. You might see blackheads, where blocked pores appear dark at the surface, or whiteheads, where the blockage sits beneath the skin. Papules are small red bumps that feel tender to the touch, while pustules are the classic spots with a visible white or yellow centre. In more severe cases, acne causes nodules and cysts, which are deep, painful lumps beneath the skin surface that can linger for weeks and often leave scars.\n  </span>\n</p>\n<p>\n     \n</p>\n<p>\n    <span style=\"background-color:transparent;color:#333333;\">Acne most commonly appears on the face, but it can also affect the chest, back and shoulders. The pattern of your breakouts often gives clues about what is causing them and helps guide the most effective treatment approach.\n </span>\n</p>","7509c6f1-b682-433b-9708-0d83e83f3a1f":[7014]}
