What causes
pimples on face?
Firstly
let’s understand what
acne and pimples
are and why they suddenly appear on people faces out of nowhere.
Pimples are inflammations or lesions of the skin that occur when the sebaceous
glands (also known as oil glands) in your skin are affected by bacteria such as
Staphylococcus epidermidis and Propionibacterium acnes, leading
to that region of your skin swelling up. The sebaceous glands in your skin
(except for on your palms and soles) are known to secrete a wax-like substance
called sebum which essentially helps maintain the oil balance of your skin, keeping
your skin healthy and preventing it from getting too dry. Any sort of
irritation to or abnormality in the functioning of your sebaceous glands can
lead to the occurrence of acne and pimples.
Causes
of pimples ranges from;
Bacterial
growth and dead skin build-up to hormonal imbalances and unhealthy habits (both
beauty-related and dietary) or even due to hereditary reasons.

most common reason behind the occurrence of pimples is acne-causing bacteria, using
