What Causes Pimples, and How Can They Be Treated Effectively? - #14497
I have been struggling with frequent pimples, and while I have tried different skincare products, I want to understand what truly causes acne and the most effective ways to treat it. Some people say that pimples are caused by hormones, but I am unsure whether diet, stress, or skincare habits play a bigger role. Pimples occur when pores become clogged with oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells, leading to inflammation, redness, and breakouts. Common causes include hormonal fluctuations, excessive sebum production, poor diet, and stress. Many dermatologists recommend salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and retinoids to control acne. However, I want to know whether natural remedies like tea tree oil, aloe vera, or turmeric are just as effective. For those who have cleared their acne, what skincare routine or lifestyle changes worked best for reducing breakouts and preventing scars? Would love insights into how to manage pimples naturally and whether diet changes make a difference.
