TEEN ACNE: Why some people get more than others?
The exact cause is not known, Androgen hormones can play a role as
they increase during puberty. They make the skin's oil glands get larger and make more sebum
Genetics - If your parents had acne, you may have inherited that tendency.
Medications (for epilepsy medication, prednisone, androgens taken as medicine, and lithium) can cause acne.
Cosmetics that have a greasy consistency may also clog pores. Water-based products are better than oil-based makeup.
