Mostly acne stems from people making too mnay oil/hair/skin cells, to the point that then clog pours. Using a quality cleanser will generally help, but mainly its a lottery that you dont have acne.

I have to tell you, I almost never see anyone with acne. Is it common in America?

Not for adults

I have acne on my face right now, I’m 32. I’m not, like, a pepperoni pizza but I had a few break out over the past week.
I don’t drink soda, I eat healthy, I don’t work out as much as I should but I’m not unfit. Acne just happens to some people dude, that’s why Accutane is a very well known product.

I don’t either, but I know people who have had it, and acne is treatable. Is this a(nother) healthcare thing that makes it more common in the US?
