Know how. Treatment of acne.
Acne is a common condition, affecting most adolescents, although for the majority it subsides within five years. For some, however, it causes great distress: they feel unattractive, isolated and self-conscious, sometimes developing psychological problems. These people should be encouraged to seek help from their GP, as treatment is available.
