Before we talk about Acne treatment, we should have clear scientific idea and knowledge about acne. We should know what is acne and causes of acne. Acne is chronic inflammatory disease of pilosebaceous glands. Symptoms are seborrhea, formation of comedones, papules and pustules. Causes of acne are seborrhea, somedogenesis, colonization of pilosebaceous duct with Propionibacterium acnes and production of inflammation. Acne is more common in people whose skin type is oily. This is due to the excess production of sebum from pilosebaceous glands.

Acne treatment should be done both internally as well as externally to clear acne and to prevent acne. Acne treatment generally consists of removing dead cells of skin (epidermis part), reducing sebum production and killing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) with oral and topical antibiotics. But the acne treatment depends on the severity of the acne. Treatment varies for mild, moderate and severe acne.
