Sebaceous glands are present all over the body except on the palms, the soles and dorsal surfaces of the hand and foot. They are particularly large and numerous on the scalp, the face, the back and the front of the chest. Each sebaceous gland is composed of multiple lobules of epithelial cells. The duct of each lobules converge towards the main sebaceous duct which normally opens into hair follicle (pilo¬sebaceous unit). Only a small number of sebaceous glands open directly on the surface of the skin (the prepuce, labia minora, eyelids, nipples and lips).
The hormone Androgen and Progesterone trigger excessive production of sebum in both men and women and those who have high levels of these hormones have acne prone skin. Sebum en-route to its way to the skin surface picks up dirt and debris as it gets nearer to the surface. Then it goes and blocks the skin pores, clogging the hair follicles. Bacteria attack the skin when it is clogged by sebum or perspiration. This bacteria scientifically known as P. acnes live on your skin and turns into a malicious harmful agent of acne, thriving and growing in the clogged hair follicles.
Whatever type of cream you choice, watch the active ingredients very carefully to be sure that they work well with you skin. Your skin should not be dried out as creams are made to help heal and moisturize the skin. Acne creams generally do work fine, as the active ingredients in them are found in other types of acne medications as well. These creams are usually great and leave you will beautiful, acne free skin.
