Whether or not you suffered from acne yourself (and suffered is very definitely the right word), I am certain that you are familiar with the condition. In fact, as some experts suggest that 80% of teenagers suffer from acne, it would be impossible not to be slightly familiar with the condition, even of you are one of the fortunate few that did not suffer acne yourself.

As there are for any medical condition that can scar and disfigure (both physically and mentally), there are lots of acne treatments and medicines on the market that are claimed to be ‘the cure’. Unfortunately, while some treatments are certainly capable of alleviating and offsetting the worst effects of the condition, there is no one ‘cure’ for acne, simply because there is no one single root cause. Indeed, there are even several different forms of acne, although some would consider them all to be different stages of the same condition. Nevertheless, the point is that with such a range of different acne ‘types’, the chances of there being one cure-all are extremely remote.
