ID 4

Acne is a skin condition which can affect people of any age, but is most common in teenagers and young adults. Acne causes pimples (caused by clogged skin follicles) to form on the skin, particularly on the face, neck, chest, shoulders and back. While not serious, incidences of acne can cause scarring.
